Default 2021 Macan S minor model year changes

Looking at possibly ordering a 2021 Macan S and wondering if anyone has information on any minor model year changes for 21.

The ones I'm most curious about are:

Any changes to mechanical / performance specifications?

Any additional emissions control devices? ( e.g. Adding gasoline particulate filters?)

Most importantly: Any changes regarding the Auto Start / Stop system? The 2020 models I've looked at remember the last user setting so if you have the system deactivated (red indicator light ON in the center console button) it remains in that setting even after a key cycle. Hoping the 2021 remains the same but unable to source that information at this time.

Thank you!

Check out this link for information that I have seen to date : I suspect the Auto/Stop feature will remain

I'm not aware of any mechanical changes.

-Carplay is now standard

-The premium package has some different content compared to 2019 / 2020

- The auto start/stop will remain. Be grateful it can still be disabled because the car is based on a platform designed in 2014. All of the current generation newer Porsches forces you to disable this feature each time you restart the car.

When I start reading phrases like "the 2021 will likely have ..." , I know the writer doesn't know anything. And, to suggest the the Macan S would see a 15 HP bump for 2021 as the GTS has 15 more HP, is simply ridiculous. What would differentiate the models if there was no HP difference.

Personally, I doubt we'll see much difference for 2021 aside form some packaging changes. The Premium package has some of the more popular options grouped in. And, don't forget the cost increase.
