See a new update has landed...to be installed on your next dealer visit I presume:

Updates from and including May 2020
Applies to XC40.

Infotainment:

Sensus navigation is stopped when a route is started via Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. Previously, only the route was paused. The "Cancel" button will no longer be visible.

The last destination for a completed route will be selectable in the list of previous destinations. Previously, this was not selectable (greyed out).

The only thing I noticed is the icon of the induction charge changed to the battery

Just had the brake recall software update, I thought it was my imagination but when HTMBO noticed the quieter, smoother ride the brake software update must have also updated the engine and ride characteristics. Has anyone else noticed a change for the better after the brake software update.

Not sure if I am imagining things but my T5 seems smoother and slightly more responsive since recent service. I notice that there was an April'20 software update which provided "Improvement of the engine management system's optimisation". Mind you it might just be because they changed the oil and replaced the spark plugs!

Had my software recall done this week and I experience smoother gear shifting, quieter engine run and much better AC performance. Emergency frontal crash mitigation works correctly now, the no-reason system interventions are gone.

If your car hasn't been in to a dealer for a while you may have got more than this one update.
