Porsche has encountered connectivity challenges due to the shutdown of 2G and 3G mobile networks by telecommunications providers. This transition has disabled various Porsche Connect features, such as remote services, security services, and safety services like eCall, for certain vehicles. In Switzerland, Porsche confirmed the impact and is seeking solutions, though the Cayenne E3 (model years 2018 to 2020) will be excluded from upcoming fixes. Some customers have been offered subscription refunds as compensation.

To address connectivity needs in older vehicles, Porsche introduced the Porsche Classic Communication Management Plus (PCCM Plus). This infotainment system is designed for selected classic 911, Boxster, and Cayman models produced between 2009 and 2016. The upgrade features a seven-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and 4G connectivity via a nano SIM card slot, allowing for modern navigation and streaming while maintaining the original dashboard aesthetic.
