That's about two years away. Surely they can't maintain Macan sales without adding this latest PCM.

I suppose their logic is a follows - it's our top selling model, we don't have to worry about it having the latest tech, they'll buy the thing whatever....

The absence of the latest infotainment features is possibly my biggest disappointment with new Gen 3 Macan S. I bought my daughter a new VW Polo match a few months ago and the connectivity/infotainment system is great with wireless Apple Car play/Android auto as standard. Just to mention I could have bought 4 VW polo's for the price I paid for the Macan S.Wing Commander wrote: ↑Sun Jan 30, 2022 10:54 am Detail of PCM 6.0.

If you desperately want android auto in your Macan II or III you can get it. There's a gent on Rennlist who can programme it for you, it's already in the PCM apparently.

Yes, I've seen him, and he has many satisfied customers too. But he can only add AA to PCM 4 at the moment. He can update the maps to the latest ones as well though.Rarecolour wrote: ↑Mon Jan 31, 2022 8:00 am If you desperately want android auto in your Macan II or III you can get it.

I smell a rat here. Porsche know it's a good 2 years before the EV Macan appears. I strongly suspect that AA will be added in about a year's time to keep sales of the Gen 3 alive, and anybody that has ordered one that hasn't gone to build will be offered it as a paid option if it gets announced between order going in and locking down.

I don't think Android Auto will be added to keep the Macan 3 alive, it doesn't make any difference. Folk are buying it for other reasons, if you don't buy a Macan cause it doesn't have Android auto then you we're never having one full stop.

I agree, but there's always the fear that they'll add PCM 6.0 just after you've taken delivery, and the niggling thought that you're paying an awful lot of money out for something that's not the full ticket on the tech front.
