It also notes that there is no impact on the efficiency of the HVAC system or the performance of the vehicle with these range enhancements. Fundamentally, there are no trade-offs.
"Note: These changes do not impact acceleration or overall climate control performance," Tesla added.
As reported by Electrek, a Tesla Model Y owner noted the new software update accounted for a meagre enhancement in range to something between 320 and 325 miles. Tesla officially has also enhanced the range of the Model Y from 316 miles to 325 miles.
