Porsche is cranking up the digital experience in its 2025 line-up, giving the Porsche Communication Management (PCM) system a serious glow-up. The latest upgrade, rolling out across the 911, Taycan, Panamera, and Cayenne, isn’t just about speed—it’s about smarts, too.
Thanks to new hardware, the system is now snappier than ever, with sharper performance and a whole suite of fresh features to keep drivers entertained, informed, and connected on the go.
More Power, More Possibilities
With upgraded computing power under the hood, PCM is now more responsive, making every tap, swipe, and voice command feel effortless. But it’s not just about speed—Porsche is bringing a new level of convenience by integrating third-party apps directly into the system, so there’s no need to fiddle with your phone while on the road.
This tech boost is fueled by Porsche’s expanded partnership with Google, first teased back in October 2023. The all-electric Macan led the way, and now the rest of the Porsche fleet is getting in on the action. The result? A seamless fusion of Google services within the car, ensuring navigation, search, and other smart functions are right at your fingertips.
Plus, it is throwing in a decade-long subscription to the Porsche Connect package as standard—so you can enjoy a top-tier digital experience without extra fuss.
Your New In-Car Playground
First introduced in the Macan Electric, the Porsche App Centre is now making its way into the wider Porsche family. This digital hub gives drivers access to an array of apps, from music, video, and podcast streaming services to news updates, media libraries, and weather forecasts.
For the explorers, there are apps to help discover must-see spots, scenic driving routes, and EV charging locations. Fancy a bit of fun? Gaming apps, karaoke, and even smart home controls are on the menu, making every drive an immersive experience.
Porsche is giving its voice control game a boost by adding Amazon Alexa as an alternative to the Porsche Voice Pilot. Whether you prefer a simple voice command, a personalised button press, or a tap on the PCM screen, Alexa is ready to assist with everything from playing music to controlling smart home devices.
Turn Up the Volume with Dolby Atmos
Audiophiles, rejoice! If your Porsche is fitted with premium Bose or high-end Burmester audio systems, you’ll now get to experience the magic of Dolby Atmos. This immersive sound technology creates a spatial audio experience that transforms your favourite tunes into a concert on wheels—provided the audio source supports the format, of course.
Porsche is taking in-car tech to the next level, ensuring the 2025 models don’t just drive like a dream but also deliver a world-class digital experience. With a faster, smarter PCM, a robust app ecosystem, and premium audio upgrades, Porsche’s infotainment system is set to impress. Buckle up—the future of driving just got a whole lot more exciting!
