That’s great to hear! I’m thinking of a turbo s e hybrid that has the specs I like and wanted to make sure it would last since the wagons have been discontinued and this would be a keeper.

That model comes with almost all the goodies. The one my car doesn’t have, and I sorely miss, is SurroundView. It’s a big car. If you’re off your visual spacial game at all rim damage is both easy and expensive.

I had a 2018 4EHST with 45000 when I replaced it with new 2023 variant. Loved the 2018, no problems. Still 28 miles after charge, real world 23-25 around townpure electric. Agree about surround view and also rear axle steering. Huge positive difference with them going from 2018 to 2023.

Thanks guys! It’s great to hear that the 2018+ has been pretty reliable. Been really thinking about it since the wagons are no longer being made (because of that, this would be a car that I would keep for the long run) and wanted to get a feel on pulling the trigger now or waiting for more 971.2 to become more readily available but it sounds like the 971.1 is pretty good if range is not the deciding factor with the bigger battery.

You mean add cameras to the mirrors and bumper and then figure out how to recode and calibrate the whole thing? Sounds like more than most of us would be willing to do...

I’m game, but have been on Kufatec’s “let me know” site for their offering several years now, with no notification. Is this documented somewhere? Ideally OEM?
