Take solace in the fact that adjusting it manually is far quicker to do than the electric version

On that basis, they should/could ditch electric seats, windows and sun roofs!

Yes, feel robbed 75-80k luxury SUV and part of the luxury element has been taken away. Sure, may not use it much once steering has been set up but this is an option I don't have on my current car and would have been nice to have considering a lot of the tech on the Macan Gen 3 is dated.PorscheMack wrote: ↑Wed Feb 02, 2022 5:11 pm My moneys on a good old fashioned lever on the column base just what you'd expect on a luxury SUV from a premier manufacturer... can't hide my disappointment on this, sorry

Sadly not. My car was marketed as a lightweight 911, but they only really paid lip service to that aspect (although I love my car & the ‘lightweight’ approach was not a big factor for me).
So they could have gone for things like wind-up windows and completely manual seats (mine are 4-ways). Needless to say, I didn’t spec a sun roof, PDK or other weight-adding options like rear axle steer or front axle lift.
