No "something else", no X reveal coming either. Honestly a firmware inspired range increase above a few miles is physically impossible so that is not a likely scenario to end range anxiety. It's pretty clear that a software update to end range anxiety is going to involve nav maps and charging locations; that could play out in different ways including partnership with Plugshare and/or others but it would be foolish to bet money on any sort of range increase.
Agreed! I think someone else posted that simply adding more miles to the car won't end range anxiety (unless it is some stupid high amount like 500+ miles that is almost impossible to dump out without realizing you need to recharge). The problem, especially in the winter, is knowing how much charge you actually have to get you from point A to B. So more accurate readouts would help with this effort. They took it a step in the right direction with the new trip meter. If we see an improvement on that front then it will further help decrease the pressures of having enough charge.
