But my journey was quicker and journey done in 20 mins. So had to keep engine running for 10 mins until map updated ok.
Why is the upload slow. ?
Why do we require to download Russia etc maps. Give us a choice to select how many countries we require, to save download / upload times.

If you’re InControl Touch Pro, that’s slow, mine take 15 mins. For Pivi Pro 30 mins is quick!
Might be the quality of your USB stick?
agree, forcing us to download & install countries we’re never going to visit is a waste of time.

Perhaps they should stop using HERE?

Skoda uses Here & are able to offer OTA map updates on latest models, so maybe one day JLR will follow suit?

I see all the talk about the time it takes, can I assume this is being done via the vehicle sim card or USB stick. Can we not do it via home wifi on the drive?
My Subaru used to automatically update that way in seconds.

Download is done to a USB stick on a PC/laptop & then transferred to the car. The whole of Europe and Russia every time.
Madness, but that is the JLR way.

My update times from USB are usually about 90 minutes of constant driving.

reason is that it updates all maps downloaded from Here on Land stover site. OTA updates on PiviPro only update the country maps you are in.

My downloads from Here are a similar size, so that in itself doesn't explain why yours take three times as long to update. Funny sort of progress by JLR.

I’ll try using a different USB, let you know if it helps. I get the 90 minute duration as soon as the car starts with the usb in and before Spotify or any other media comes on. I asked the dealer (who are really very good and helpful) and they said Technical told them that was normal for a Pivi Pro - yours is Touch isn’t it. Strange that the previous system is more efficient - do you have speed cameras in your maps ?

Yes, I have Incontrol touch pro & yes I have speed camera data. Does seem odd that the newer software is slower , perhaps someone else with pivi pro can confirm their update times.

But my point is that you have keep the ignition on for up to 90 mins rather than the maps be just small updates or install incrementally

Yes, it's a very poor system. Have you tried using different USB sticks? Mine always takes 15 mins, give or take. I've noticed that the DAB radio struggles when updating maps, so maybe something else in the infotainment is slowing your updates down (but no idea what)
