In the past 2 days I've received two significant OTA updates from Stuttgart. The first was a massive 30 minute OTA (and very serious sounding) update that supposedly improved many of the UI components.

Today, around 12:00 Noon MST, I received this:

Porsche Taycan New OTA Update: ONA7 Battery Improvement Firmware? Any comments? _2022 06 TAY - 1


I am installing it now as I speak. I'm always quite nervous installing these updates because the German frau voice is very stern and makes it sound like it you even LOOK at the car sideways you will screw it up.

Has anyone noticed any improvements with this (latest?) update? A battery improvement would be a HUGE deal.

Interesting. I'll watch for this on my 2020. I have scheduled a service visit for a recall and requested every software update possible. I'll ask about ONA7 when I go to the dealer in July.

FWIW, and I am a bit suspect at this -- at my usual 85% daily charge limit, I now have an increased range of about 10-12% more than before.

Depending on ambient conditions I usually get 395-405km to a 85% SOC, but now the computer shows 420-430km. If so, that's a big and welcome improvement.

I see no range increase whatsoever or any UI improvements - still the same.
