Has anyone with current Macan builds on order heard anything about delays due to the recent chips and other parts supply issues? Wondering if Porsche will be able to side step this industry-wide problem. Could impact desirability of ordering vs. buying on lot, obviously.

Wondering as well although this situation is not new so I would assume that vehicles already in production are close to be wouldn't be affected.

Porsche/Audi/VW would probably allocate scarce parts to their most profitable vehicles. If the same part is going into a Tiguan or a Macan GTS, it's a no-brainer as to where you would send the part. VW product managers may disagree, so depends on how far up the VW Group food chain this decision is being made.

I was denied my GTS allocation today that was put in a few weeks ago but not yet locked due to a manufacturing issue regarding the seats the dealer told me.

He said no changes can be made to any existing orders or they lose 14 or 18 way seats if specified.

Said no allocations until after August which I think will be the revised model potentially....

First world problems I know lol.

So is the translation...they can’t make 14 and 18 seats right now and delivery slots after August are out of luck?

After Aug the seats shouldn’t be a issue. Its my June build that is no longer able to receive 14 or 18 ways.

Any updates on when the 2022 Macan updates will be released? I have read and seen some spy shots, but not heard anything official from Porsche. Looking at ordering a 2022 GTS and hoping for some infomatics updates and they will convert to the haptic center console instead of all the buttons.

Anyone know if/when any changes in the Macan would be announced?

There is a high probability that a GTS won’t be available to start in a refresh, also heard the turbo won’t be available in ICE just electric. My input is only worth what your paying for it...... the Panamera refresh kept the GTS so hopefully I’m wrong.

My 2021 Macan GTS build is set to lock V250 on 14 May. V260 entry into build has been delayed from 14 May to 28 May, but no errors on the 14-way seats. My dealer indicated the 2022 Macan will not be able to be ordered until late this calendar year and will likely not be delivered until April of next year at .the earliest

My 2021 Macan GTS build locked V250 on April 16 and V260 entry on April 30. Dealer inventory, V900 has been moved from July 23 to July 2. My dealer told me that I shouldn’t experience and delays or parts issues. I really like the look of the Sport Design Mirrors and the fact that they are all one color as opposed to a black base and body color top.

Seems like the EV Macan should have a different name more like Taycan vs Panamera. I just don't think the numbers support that everyone is ready to move to an EV.
Not yet at least. Charging infrastructure needs more work (standardization, availability are two issues that immediately come to mind).

I sure hope that the ICE Macan doesn't become a red-haired stepchild. If that is the circumstance, it would seem to be better to just keep the current-gen ICE Macan and milk the remaining sales.

Default Ordered my 2022 GTS

Had past by the dealer 2 weeks ago to order my 2021 GTS and was told because of chip shortage I could only buy what they have. I started looking at the 2022 model and didn't like the console but like the new interior technology and rear bumper.

So I ordered a 2022 for December delivery with allot of options...... New colors to be announced but I choose chalk I am also thinking of upgrading the brakes.

I was told the same last time I went to the dealership. Luckily enough, mine was ordered right before the chip shortage affected production and is ready over month ahead of schedule. Picking up this Tuesday!

You can't go wrong with Chalk. That's what I chose for mine as well!
