Absolutely the case that drivetrain improvements will be expected and will be interesting to see what they are, typically the cosmetic changes are minor, but tech and drivetrain usually benefit the most from these refreshes.
It was hard to parse that corporate speak, but I’m glad to hear they are improving the algorithm for low-traction situations. Anecdotally, I was going up a snowy pass recently, and on purpose went off the “clear” line onto the soft/fresh snowy lane. The car did ok (on all seasons) but battery consumption just plummeted.
The pumping losses of tyres going through heavy rain are considerable, and I would imagine snow is worse, so the increase in battery consumption is more likely due to physics than any of the algorithms being way out.It was hard to parse that corporate speak, but I’m glad to hear they are improving the algorithm for low-traction situations.

I think the 'dents' are radar domes for ACC - one either side rather than a single central one - same arrangement on current Panamera.Glad we have a '23 coming. I prefer my cars without dents in them.
This level of testing is normal.
I was joking!
Sounds about right - generally March starts the MY buzz.
They already do that with each model year. There is even a very German term for it called „Entfeinerung“ which roughly translates into „making it less sophisticated“, therefore less costly.
