Amidst concerns about range, Tesla is getting ready to introduce a new “efficiency package” for the majority of its electric vehicle portfolio.

When it comes to electric car efficiency, Tesla has long been at the front, using smaller battery packs to achieve greater range than the majority of its rivals.

Now that some have caught up, worries about Tesla’s potentially overly optimistic range estimates are also intensifying.

Due to an EPA rule change, the manufacturer was forced to lower the anticipated ranges of the majority of its electric vehicle lineup.

According to a number of claims, including one from the well-known Tesla hacker Green, Tesla is getting ready to release a new “efficiency package” for the Model Y, Model S, and Model X that is based on software changes.

Although the precise contents of the “efficiency package” are unknown, Tesla did release something similar to it in the Model 3 with the 2021 update.

Two Model Y grades had their ranges go below the 300-mile threshold, which is a psychological range figure that many purchasers find significant. The Model Y is by far Tesla’s most popular vehicle.

It’s conceivable that Tesla is trying to increase vehicle economy in order to make up for the range that was lost as a result of the EPA rule change.

It’s crucial to remember that the recent range adjustment only applies to the EPA’s projected marketed range; the vehicles’ actual range or efficiency have not changed.
