Drove one while waiting for Macan to arrive - only car I’ve ever known with so much body roll around corners and yet so uncomfortable over the road at the same time!

Interesting you found that. Reviews I’ve read rate them quite highly, but must admit I’ve not driven one yet.

+1. I think they look cool, although am not a fan of the rear light design (too angular).

It was the 400bhp version and quick in a straight line. I think it was the adjustable suspension one as it had yellow calipers?Nuclear Nick wrote: ↑Mon Jun 13, 2022 12:22 pmInteresting you found that. Reviews I’ve read rate them quite highly, but must admit I’ve not driven one yet.
It wallowed because it’s one of the heaviest EV’s out there (more than a Range Rover according to TG) and it was fidgety over road surface to the point I could feel it through my seat.
Quick, but there are now literally dozens of EV’s out there that are better than this in terms of looks, handling and range…

I think you are right re calipers and therefore it has the Ohlins which are meant to be some of the best dampersJon A wrote: ↑Mon Jun 13, 2022 3:05 pmIt was the 400bhp version and quick in a straight line.
