    I think it’s awesome, and a smart business move.

    I genuinely don’t understand how you can think an optional feature for funsies is a bad thing.

        If it’s like the Ioniq 5 N, none of this stuff is active by default, you have to select a specific drive mode for it.

        One can just NOT use that drive mode.

          Okay, but which drive mode is that? Presumably it’s the “sporty” one, which is the one I tend to use 100% of the time. And the one I would expect most drivers of a high performance vehicle like this to use.

            In a Porsche it’s likely to be configurable. Especially the “individual” drive mode where you set every little thing exactly how you like. In my Taycan, my individual mode puts everything in the sportiest settings, except the suspension is dialed back to “sport” from “sport plus”. This is for sure one place where the driver could choose to enable or disable the simulated gears or simulated engine braking
