From your description is sounds like the right type 2 cable, the end with the dust cap you just need remove that and then it should fit easily in to the top half of the charging port on the car with the flat edge at the top.

T Yep, as far as I know all Fremont RWD, LR, & Performance Y are Panasonic 2170 (and thus eligible for the tax credit) and the Performance 3 also. It has bounced around a bit over recent months but I believe the Fremont 3LR is on LG cells now given it isn’t eligible for the credit, and the...

Nah, S/X still use 18650 batteries vs the 3 using 2170s Difference will be down the the LG pack from Shanghai vs the Panasonic pack from Fremont.

Why would you assume it’s only for that reason when there are likely to be a whole bunch of additional visualisations we haven’t even seen yet? So yes, I am for real.

It really isn’t. It’s already been observed that the FSD visualisations are laggy on the older Atom chip, mostly down to its underpowered GPU. With the changes to sentry mode etc the fact the Atom lacks acceleration for h.265 decoding is also likely a reason for creating a fork between versions

Older cars will still get software updates including some new features as older model S/X do today, just not all of them. It appears the new UI can’t/wont run on the Intel Atom processor found in early model 3/Y which is why they don’t get it. So older cars will still probably get most new...

🤷🏻 the ones near me are free parking, or at least a free period if you get the ticket validated. Sure it’d be nice if it was all free, but that’s the UK for you.

Well there we go, changes are live. UK subscription price dropped to £8.99 per month for non-Tesla users, with same rates per kWh as Tesla owners and crucially price per kWh looks to have dropped to 35p off peak near me. 🎉

I’d guess it was the update that gave you adaptive high beams. Blue dot always there when a new feature drops with a setting that you have an option to activate. Check the release notes for more info.

OK, Nostradamus.

Right, so he was wrong about the software but comparing that announcement to this one about a physical product isn’t apples to apples. What he said at the time was:

If you define that as the total number of cars produced with camera and compute hardware capable of running FSD, then technically there were. Which is what that previous statement was actually about if you read beyond the headline.

or maybe before…

Huh. You’re correct, I had totally missed that update. So Shanghai paint shop has had an upgrade then. I am fake news.

Interesting. This tells us that Berlin (the only paint shop equipped to spray those colours) has finally started producing RHD vehicles and shipping to UK & Ireland. That indirectly also goes part way to explaining some of the production cut and reduction in number of shifts at Shanghai as...
