Raise suspension for transporting car?

[todor]

Hi all, new member here. Just bought a used Taycan Turbo Cross Turismo from Germany and will be getting it transported on a large truck to my location (Bulgaria). I'm concerned that the transportation people may scrape it underneath while loading, so I'm thinking of asking the seller to raise the height of the Taycan to the maximum position before loading. My question is: will it automatically go back to its normal height after it's parked on the truck and turned off? Even if it doesn't do that, would it go back to its normal height after it's restarted later for unloading? Is there any way to force it to stay in the raised position across restarts? Thanks in advance!

When raised it will be lowered when driving > 30km/h. It will not raise again unless it is done manually.

Thanks! So there's no danger that it will lower itself while loading, sitting on the truck or unloading?

Nope as long as they don’t speed before or after unloading nothing can happen

I am not expert, but when I raise my car and then turn it off and turn it back on, it is automatically in the normal position again. At some point it lowers.

The risk is that the car is manually lowered by whomever puts it into the transporter. The suspension light will be lit up blue indicating the car is in lift mode.

Suspect it will be fine in any event.

Thanks for the replies everyone! Sounds like it should be fine and won't lower automatically while loading/unloading. I can't wait to get it!
