Macan EV: My impressions driving Macan Turbo during Porsche on Track Day

Re body roll, are we comparing the Macan EV to a 911? We know how that comparison will (and properly so) would turn out.
I am not buying my Macan turbo for the track (have my C8 Z06 for that), but I know based on media reviewers I trust and by my seeing their videos, that the Macan EV will be a lot of fun being exercised on curvy country roads — which I will use it for in addition to it being my fun DD.

Or doing an IKEA or Home Depot run and bring back large furniture or bags and bags of soil - all things the Macan can handle easily while still being a fun/performance car.

I also have zero interest in track use, but am interested in how it compares to the ICE version. The outgoing GTS is certainly not immune from of body roll.

The Macan media testing folks drove the Macan spiritedly on the narrow mountain roads of southern France as we see here in IMO the best video review of all, e.g., this one done by “savagegeese.” Recommend starting at 14:25.

I thought the same. 😬
@TomekGnomek I presume you had PASM set to Sport+ but can you confirm?

Looks way more dramatic on video and this scenario was extreme.
EU funding goes a long way, you would be surprised
