2020.40.7 Just downloaded and installed

[TomServo]

You can increase your displayed range the old fashioned way, slow down and use less HVAC

 

[jwuwu]

so far on Teslafi I only see the 2020.40.7 updates being pushed to the Long Range DM model Ys, no performance yet.

 

[jeffbco]

I'm new to Tesla and still learning...are the updates improving motor and battery efficiency and therefore the range or are they just adjusting how range is measured or both?

On the model Y, they added 10 miles. This was due to a software correction/adjustment. Turns out that the heat pump and one other item is allowing for better efficiency. There’s youtube videos explaining this.

The update is going out slow, I’m still waiting.

Just to add this is ultimately why I went with Tesla, realized they get better range with smaller batteries. Their engineers are squeezing efficiencies out of every part of the vehicle constantly and clearly years ahead of others.

Yup, range is increased. Mine is a 2xxx Vin build in March so probably all Y will get the increase, not just newer models. Before update 100% was 301, now 308.

If you switch your wheels to the 19s or 20s, does it give you 326 miles range?

 

[LeeStafford11]

I got this and now it's like I have a 2021 MY since nothing's really gonna change in the MY for the new year (unlike the M3 which is getting the MY's UBS layout and a powered trunk among other small changes..)

No, it won't matter. I had my Y since March, so the total range dropped. I can always try to charge the car to 100% and drive it to less than 10% and charge it up again to reset it. Probably will see some range back, but I am too lazy. You will only see lower range on the performance Y.

Yeah, I've been watching the same thing. It doesn't seem like any Performance Y's have gotten it (and the range boost).

Totally agree, its the reason I think Tesla is still 4-5 years ahead of everyone else.

Looks like 2020.40.8 is going out now to the fleet based on Teslafi. 209 installs today and 40 or so going to MYs (10% of the MYs in Teslafi).

 

[qdeathstar]

I just got the .8

 

[Teefal]

Hmm ... is it worth going to the supercharger and doing 100% just to see the new range ... probably would lose a mile or two just maxing at SC

 

[egoodro85]

Why hasn't any y performance recieved the update

Will that be different between physically charging the car to 100% VS adjust the bar to 100% on your tesla App under "CHARGING" (It will tell you the est. Range)?

An MY performance just got .8 on teslafi

Yes, I switched from 21s to 20s on my performance and went from 290 mi to 215 mi “rated” range. I doubt my real world range increased by much.

 

[phil4791eng]

I downloaded .8 and went from 305 mi to 312 mi range.

Thedifference is that I didn't know I could do that (found out last night in another thread)

Damn! I better get me some performance wheels!
