A new software update Tesla released has boosted the range of current Model Y vehicles. It joins almost all of Tesla's new cars that received the improvements earlier. Version 2020.40.7 improved the efficiency of the motors and climate control systems to get you a better range. 

Electrek reports that a Model Y Long Range owner got a better range of 320-325 miles (514-523km). This instance isn't the first time Tesla improved the range of its existing lineup. Last year, some Model 3 electric vehicles got an additional 15 miles (24km) through a software update, too.
