Hmmmm... Just checked out the Porsche Macan configurator. You can get massaging seats and rear heated seats for the kids. And vectored rear wheel steering. Of course you pay for EVERY option... And I could get the car this summer...and it comes in better colors.

Audi is only offering silver, gray and blue. Generally they offer at least one crazy color.

In the interest of accuracy, air susp is available on Q5e and SQ5 in the "Sport Package".

Waiting; waiting; waiting. We are still awaiting the build and price configurator. As noted above, this was, and still remains one of the worst reveals. Way before this comparable time, we were configuring our Macan EV’s.

Of course I (and tons of others) signed up their site yesterday for more info by filling in the :”Stay Informed” link, and of course nothing yet in any way.

As to the Audi spokesperson’s suggestion for us to sign in by our own country, nothing yet in under Audiusa.com

@Road Traveler , I tried to use the "Stay Informed" link and it gave me an error. Now I won't be informed.

I figured that I messed it up because I never received a confirmation email.

everyone on the Macan forums said the actual eta for peeps with allocated orders is September. So I’m presuming an equal arrival to Q6 if we are gonna be ordering come June.

I noticed Q6 has 40 more horsepower than Macan 4. At least in the US - outside the US they have the same horsepower. Wasn't expecting that since Q6 will for sure be about 20% cheaper.

I'm guessing SQ6 will be about where the upcoming Macan 4S will land in terms of power.

I get why Audi is not offering rear steering for now - they are probably saving that one for RSQ6. But makes no sense that luxury oriented items like massaging seats are not included as options when they are on the Porsche side of fence.

The power difference was odd to me, not sure why America gets more power, I am kinda bummed, I would rather have max range vs a quicker 0-60 but at the same time EVs motor can usually be more efficient if not being pushed in normal driving speeds so more power = better day to day efficiency if its easier/less strain to do 0-40 50-80 overtakes? I don't know
