Doesn't matter the term - that calc is constant.
They are going to extend the same Resid as was in Q4 when i ordered the car.
At 10K miles
55% for 36 months
53% for 39 months.
MF .00230.
They tried to raise to .00270, which they said is still below where it is now (which is crazy, as these are terrible MF's) but told them that PNA assured me no financial harm in terms of resid or rates by the time the car arrives, and they backed down. Would love to get it lower, but think this is the lowest i'm going to get. Still waiting in a stupid CARB state...

Burning Brakes
Does anybody here know how the heat is generated for the cabin of a Panamera 4 E-Hybrid? Is it generated solely from the electric-motor's batteries, or is it generated solely by the ICE, or from a combination? I'm wondering how much the electric motor's battery capacity is compromised by the use of the heater in winter. (And, I guess, likewise for the AC in summer.)

Thanks for the data! But I think when you are charging the electric-motor batteries while driving, you are using more petrol than you would be using if you were not charging the battery pack, so you are paying with lower gasoline mileage. I'd like to hear what the actual reduction in gas mileage (in litres/100 km or in mpg) that owners have found for this.
Nevertheless, the 7,6l (31 mpgUS) is overall a good value over the 170ish km (110ish miles) even if you argue that some of the fuel was used to charge the batteries (which however was not the case)...

I think this thread is being a little overused...it was initially for new eHybrid enthusiasts!
Comet - heat is a combo I think, when on Electric it must just use up battery. It's not the drain of the heater I would worry about, the batteries themselves are not heated so range takes a massive hit if it's cold outside.
Rsyed - the magic button spools up the Turbos and gives you max electric boost. Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

sorry for the questions - just very curious as I still have 3 months to delivery...

Yes, in some ways more so than a 911 because you'll add the first 15-30mph quicker but then the car loses the punch just as the 911 would pick it up.
Have done 9k miles in last 8 months, throughout Europe, and never regretted the choice!!

Yes I suppose it would be rather stupid leaving these options for merely saving 1.600 Euro (ventilated and heated seats at front).
But I am already at 153.000 Euro (175.000USD) and I am still in doubt equipping with Burmester rather than Bose. I have the Burmester in my current Cayenne, but that was a 100.000 Euro build and if I equip it now it goes to 160.000 Euro which seems a lot to me.
Someone wanting to check my current build? Always open for suggestions, or thumbs up if you like it

For those of you who have your e hybrid in the USA, did your car come with Pzero or P7 all season. I remember when I ordered there was no option for all season tires (which I'm not a fan of) but the cars I'm seeing in dealerships all have P7 cinturato (all seasons). Thanks!

Hello everyone! Just picked mine up from the dealership last Friday, loving it so far. Has any one tried to get "Launch Control" working? I was able to get e-Launch working by switching to e-power, break with my left foot, and hit the "peddle" with my right and active e-Launch; however, I cannot get Launch Control working by switching to Sport + mode. I contacted the dealership and they are looking into it. Any feedback on your attempts to activate Launch Control is much appreciate.
Thanks!
Thanks!
