WNA5 Campaign increase range??

[McgR]

I have my car for 4 weeks. And consumption is still going down.

I have PCM 6. I don’t know if this is available in other version or this is something new. I know before the left tube could show traction on the 4 wheels.

In the centre screen, when I select trip it will show all data but also where the energy goes. When driving on CC only the rear wheels get power (range and normal mode). When accelerating the front engine comes in. For little braking regeration only on one axle and when braking harder it regens on two axles. I think this is the change in motor management Porsche mentioned.

Thx - perhaps the higher ambient impacts the consumption a little - you get more headline range but slightly higher consumption.

Out of interest what has been your overall consumption since new (trip data will provide a number)?

Is this what you mean? It's not since new because I re-set it early on but it has 3600 miles on it

Yep, thats the detail and your true consumption overall. Keep an eye to see if it improves.

It already has. It was 2.6 prior to the update. I probably have about 500-600 miles on the updated software.

Wait for another 5k km or more…

Is this new in PCM 6? I am parked now but when driving it shows the energy flow.

Potentially - don't forget all the other factors impacting range - driving style, speed, temps and so on.

I don't mean to be negative but it looks like you're getting the range expected rather than an increase attributable to the software tweak.

Why would I think you're being negative? My original comment was almost identical to yours

I definitely had an increase in range but I got a bad wheel bearing fixed at the same time and the ambient temps rose as well around the same time so I can’t be sure.

That being said, the range I was getting in my 2022 was a little disappointing before the update and now I’m just getting what I expected.
