Anyone notice an increase in range after software update to 20195.15 f5def7e

I have a LR RWD and received the update to 5.15 and I did not get a range bump as best as I can tell. I charge to 90% and it ends at 274 miles.

perhaps I need to do a hard reboot and/or full-charge.

Hard reboot didn't help, 90% still at 283 which is 5 mile increase instead of the expected 13.

Will try to do a full-charge this weekend before heading out for the Tesla Club of Greater Houston's Owner Breakfast on Saturday.

Same with me. I get 283/284 at 90%. I charged to 100% last night and got the expected 315/316 miles.

No change for me either. Getting 212 miles at 70%. 212/310=68.3%

I set my LR RWD to charge to ~80% each night and haven’t touched that setting since updating to 5.15. Before 5.15, I’d get around 246-248 after charging. After 5.15, I get around 261-263 after charging.

My guess is that Tesla made the buffers a little smaller to use more kilowatts that are in the battery and were previously buffer protected

So my usable KW from 100% to 1 mile range left was 68.42 and there was a stop for lunch for about an hour and another 10 min stop, TeslaFi seems to calculate total usable battery at 68.8 kw which seems right based on my usage, would be interesting if jumped above 72 kw now, I seriously doubt this would be the case though.

Honestly, I would expect the updated software to tell us it occurred. This last update does not.

For example, the Model X has received an update specifically calling out the 5% update.

2019.8.2 included 5% power increase : teslamotors

updated to 2019.7.11 77ce4d4 and range back to the way it was 278 @ 90% this morning. What just happened!?!

Disappointed to report that I charged to 100% for a trip and I’m still getting the 313 miles I originally had with the car, and i’m now on version 2019.8.5

Any others seem to not get the range update. I have the release note of the Peak Power update and I am driving a February 2018 LR RWD

The LR RWD always had longer range than 310, but Tesla choose to keep it in line with AWD so that AWD (which has higher profit margins) would not sell poorly.

Rated correctly, the LR RWD with 18" aeros would be EPA rated at 332, which also puts it very close to the S100D range.

firmware 8.4 seems to have removed the extra range and so it's back to reporting 310 on my car with 1100 miles on it. It took about 10 charges for that to show up, wasn't instant.
