Bugfix (part of 2022.28.200)
Release notes ending x.x.200 are usually linked to cars running the FSD City Streets Beta trial although that trial is generally accepted to be still be on 2022.20.
The cars receiving this update have typically been on 2022.23.101.x, so there clearly appears to be a subset of cars on this branch of releases.
Specific release notes will be published when we get them if they differ from the family release.

Alternate Routes (part of 2022.28.1)
View up to three routes when navigating to a destination. Quickly compare the total travel time and traffic information for each route.
Premium Connectivity or a WiFi connection is required for it to work.
This is a natural progression of the Traffic along route we saw mentioned in 2022.4, 2022.4 and 2022.24 and the Alternate Navigation Routes seen in China in release 2021.40. This feature may not appear immediately, but usually does after either a reboot and/or a period of deep sleep.

A status bar with select quick controls has been added to the top of the touchscreen map.
Only for the new Model S and Model X

Smart Summon is now available in more countries, currently thought to include Japan. although the text "please stand within six meters of the vehicle" has been added to these release notes.
