Our opinion

The practical view.

“Shortlist it for the way it fits your household, not for a headline acceleration or range number.”

Why it belongs on a shortlist

  • 650 kW with Launch Control
  • 505 km Australian WLTP
  • 320 kW peak DC

Trim guidance: Four seats as standard. Check for the optional 4+1 layout. Rear boot planning uses 405 L with the Bose audio system listed for the Australian build.

Planning allowance based on Porsche Australia’s combined Vehicle High WLTP figure. Wheel choice, towing and conditions affect range.

Absence of a listed issue is not a reliability claim. Official recalls, manufacturer campaigns, repeated reports, isolated reports and editorial observations are never blended into a fake failure rate.

TechManPat practical fit

Not tested - yet.

Catalogue research is not a physical family-living test, so this vehicle does not receive a TechManPat Tested badge.

The future test covers a rear-facing child seat, pram and shopping, dog crate, boot opening, rear doors, adult rear comfort, easy entry, parking, visibility, controls and real-world efficiency.
