Hi all! I am trying to figure something out. It seems some cars have this options, others don't. I'm curious whether this is North America option, or perhaps just depends on what version of software your Taycan is running. It does not appear in the PCM simulator, but here is a picture from one US car.

Porsche Taycan Does your pre-2025 Taycan have this setting? 1725003780680-dt


Thanks in advance! Maybe we'll learn another Taycan fun fact from this.

'Beep on lock' has been outlawed in Europe for some time. Hazards are flashed.
Interesting fact. Out of curiosity, if you pop your hood open (don't need to actually open it), then click "lock" on your remote, any beeps?

My MY23 beeps if anything is left open and you try to lock. It's not the horn though

All Porsches beep / chirp quietly when a door, hood, trunk or roof is not closed for many years now.

The locking chirp is not the horn in the US either - the exact same chirp/beep as when something is not closed on locking. My wife’s audi as well as a recent Cayenne I drove had the exact same chirp too (the Cayenne was two chirps on lock).

Ok, the poll and the comments seems to confirm what @Bennachie said above, this is an EU regulation thing. It seems this option is missing in EU due to regulations.

Thanks all!
