I have a Gen 2 that’s approaching 3rd birthday so decision time, I hadn’t been sure about the Gen 3 buttons and have been meaning to arrange test drive. My car had service this week & I was sure I’d asked for Gen 3 Macan courtesy car, but there was a 70 plate Cayenne waiting for me instead.
As most will know it’s pretty similar inside, but the thing I couldn’t work out was how to easily disable the start stop which is one of my ‘pre flight’ actions as there’s a tricky junction close near to home that requires a quick decision at times and a stopped engine adds unnecessary jeopardy
I found the start stop ‘button’ on the Home Screen, but that seems a real faff, is this the same on Gen 3 Macan ? Or is there an easier method?

There is a button on the haptic centre console it’s the one on the bottom right of the panel on the gen3 macan.

Or get the sports chrono and turn in into sports mode from the steering wheel so the start/stop doesn't engage?

Alternatively you can always add the start/stop feature to the diamond button.

Same place as on my Gen 2 S! There's hope for us yet :)

Is that the standard non leather dash you have there ? Finding it difficult to get good pictures of what non leather really looks like. Thanks

Yes , we as all after many hours on the confuserator went for 14 way which gave the leather seats instead , rather than the leather interior option , 14 way as you know give so much more for the price and to be honest I needed the behind knee seat squab adjustment.
