So, at least for now, you have to manually adjust your suspension to the low setting once at speed. Is this really that bad? Granted, if intentional, it should have been communicated beforehand - or at least in the release notes, but really, the option is still there when most need it - conserving range when traveling at long distances (usually at speed). This will undoubtedly decrease the frequency with which the car is driven at the low setting. Whether that will mitigate fire risk is of legitimate discussion, but seriously - another model S WILL catch fire. This is pretty much a statistical certainty. Whether that happens sooner rather than later should be and likely is the company's main concern. Thus, the increase in suspension height. The cheapest and (arguably) most effective way to mitigate this short-term risk.
