[UK] 2021.44.30

[joexn]

2021.44.30 is rolling out to the UK soon. Once I get the update file, I'll update this post and include the release notes. It's likely only going to contain minor bug fixes relating to some of the bugs with V11. It'll be unlikely that there are any UI changes in this release as Elon only said two days ago that changes were coming after feedback.

The online manuals for Model S, 3, X and Y are currently being updated for V11 in preparation for the release. You can find references to 2021.44.30 on the new manuals (these are only available for North America, the Europe manuals are still being rolled out hence the 404 errors on the current manuals).

The only feature of 2021.44.30 known at the moment is Track Mode for the Palladium Model S, but this is obviously unobtainable in the UK.

I was going to update the previous 2021.44.x thread but it has been locked and split into various threads about V11.

It gives you control over power bias between front and rear wheels, traction control and regen braking plus g force meter and lap timer.

Track Mode V2 allows Model 3 Performance drivers to customize its handling, providing even more control over how their car behaves on track.

Nope, if you see the release notes above, it's only minor fixes. It's mainly for Track Mode for Plaid S.

Not everything makes it to the release notes. They have made undocumented changes before.

Yes, there's only a few undocumented changes which includes the cold weather tips and bug fixes. I receive the update file and break it down, I know what has been included and what hasn't.

Oddly this showed as available on Teslamate, but I didn't get a push notification on iOS.

Installed this morning. No notification, only an invite on the touchscreen to install or schedule. It seemed to have downloaded the update without me knowing about it, as I couldn't immediately install as I was about to drive, but it offered to do so again when I parked up, without the car being on WiFi. So, that's different.

Can't see any difference... and the "release notes" are the same as the previous notes.
