2022.28.1 — Official Release Notes and Discussion

I’m gonna say nay to this one until I see charge curve results.

24.8 seems to have yielded very nice mid-band gains on the curve and I’d rather not give those up if I don’t have to.

Any more info / write up on this undocumented observation? First I'm hearing of this -- improved super charger charge curves.

Model/year/battery type? SuperCharger v3 only? Or V2 also?

2019 Raven X Standard Range with BTX5 pack.

Haven’t tried on a v2 yet but seemed to hold at least 10KW higher than usual

Most definitely. Now I only got the car a week ago. It’s frustrating because I had FSD on my model X that I traded in for this car.

Safety score is 100 currently….again, only a week in.

I was also hoping that the new beta release had me excited as a chance to be more widely released.

Tonight 28.1 was pushed to my M3. I was thinking, ok, I see the release notes on "Not a Tesla App" which was linked from Teslafi and it said that two things were included; Alternate Routes and the ability to minimize the Theater. I can dig the Alternate Route, especially navigating through SoCal, but guess what... It was NOT part of my download:

Most of the time the updates are great, but this one is, well, useless to me. It's right up there with the useless games we continually receive.

It's not that I don't appreciate the updates, I do, but all that programming effort by Tesla's software folks for the ability to minimize the theater? I dunno, it just seems they could have spent their time and money on something more valuable to Tesla owners as a whole.

Alternate routes is definitely a step in the right direction. But what I don’t understand is, given that we’re all driving cars that have some level of self driving, why there isn’t an option to prefer routes more amenable to that.

I frequently make a drive that the navigation system always insists on taking me through the heart of Boston. Technically, this might save three or four minutes on a 2 hour drive. But I can hardly use autopilot at all for the first 30 minutes. A dozen traffic lights. A dozen turns. Crappy roads. Through a homeless encampment. Total nightmare. Or, I could go around the city, with only thee lights and only one turn. Three minutes into that trip. I can put it on autopilot and hardly ever touch the wheel again (except to satisfy nags, of course.) Completely stress free. And only takes me 3-7 minutes longer on a 120 minute drive.

Why wouldn’t Tesla have an option to prefer a route like that? Kind of blows me away.

Perhaps adding a level of logic like “stay out of downtown” or just “areas to avoid” might be of interest.
