How to use Radio Plus in your Porsche

Internet radio streams stations online, while hybrid radio continuously selects the strongest available source for a seamless listening experience.

To use Radio Plus, you’ll need active Porsche Connect services. You can check your service status here.

How to use Radio Plus

You can access Radio Plus directly from the Porsche Communication Management (PCM) infotainment system.

To open Radio Plus:

Home > Media > Play > … > Online Radio

You can browse and select stations by popularity, country, genre, or language: 

Home > Media > Online Radio > List 

Then choose your preferred category, such as Genre.

How to activate Hybrid Radio

The Hybrid Radio function ensures continuous playback while driving. When FM or DAB reception weakens – such as in tunnels or remote areas – PCM automatically switches to the online version of the same station. When this happens, the word 'Online' will appear next to the station name.

To activate Hybrid Radio: 

Select FM/DAB as your current media source. Go to: Home > Settings > Radio > Radio Settings. Enable Online station tracking in case of weak reception.

Once activated, PCM will seamlessly transition to the online signal whenever standard reception is poor.

How to add radio stations to favorites

You can easily save your preferred stations for quick access.

To add a station to favorites: 

Tap Home > Media > Play > … > Online Radio. Use the List icon or the Search tab to find a station by name. Select the station from the Results list to start playing it. Tap the star icon at the bottom of the screen to save it to your favorites. To remove it, tap the star icon again.

To access your favorites:

Go to the List tab and tap the star icon. Choose from your saved stations.

Your favorites are stored in your Porsche ID, so they’ll follow you if you log in to another Porsche with the same ID.
