Any news about the cars that will be available after 2023 or 2024?

Is there a way to see which software versions are most recent for the e208? Not even map updates have been provided to me for the past year or so. Under "Settings" and similar options, it states that there are none.
By the way, these are over-the-air updates; the other option has been removed. I purchased my vehicle with navigation, but I am not currently paying for Connect Plus or whatever it's called. I am surprised that there has been no update at all. Surely something would have been announced by now? Sept 2024, GT, 74 plate.
Can I find a history of when OTA updates were released?

Marked as irrelevant and removed.

It appears that the VIN option is no longer relevant for newer vehicles; instead, it directs you to the over-the-air update page. In a similar vein, I have no idea what the SRC button does, even though I've only ever used it to return to the previous channel of the radio—until the car switched it for me! Curious about the appropriate time to press SRC?
I will go to the car and write down the most recent versions; I regret not doing so sooner.

For fun, I asked AI, and it said that there is a world of difference between Peugeot USB updates and over-the-air updates. By inserting a large replacement file into the USB, the map database is overwritten. OTA updates database map tiles automatically whenever there is a change. 'Map up-to-date / last updated {date}' should be displayed by the latter, while the former uses the version reference (xx.y.z-Rx) that I mentioned earlier. Find out from AI how you can view this data in the vehicle or on the MyPeugeot app.

I would be surprised if you could receive over-the-air map updates from Peugeot unless you had a subscription to i-Connect or something similar.

Considering the price, I wonder if it isn't time to think about utilising CarPlay or Auto with your preferred navigation app instead. Given the number of problems I've encountered with my Peugeot TomTom, it's obvious that the French manufacturer uses a stripped-down version of the TomTom system.

For instance, Peugeot's decision to omit the TomTom EV-specific route planning and trip management features is both foolish and obnoxious. Probably only to keep their licence expenses down. Rather than utilising the built-in screen, they provide an independent, non-integrated EV route planner app that is, according to everyone, pretty useless.

The fact that I have something to be angry with Stellantis about is more important than the fact that I use CarPlay, which I do happily. I still haven't had the opportunity to check the versions. If it has updated even once in the past two years, let alone three or four times, then maybe I am indeed up-to-date.
Since I planned to use Google Maps and CarPlay most of the time, I didn't specify navigation when I bought the car because it came standard with other features (heated seats). The fact that Stellantis charges a premium price for a feature only to make it non-functional until you pay a monthly fee is revolting to me. The voice control option is no different.
