    What battery cells are in the 2023 M3 LR?

    Indeed it does as long as you qualify for the tax credit

    What battery cells are in the 2023 M3 LR?

    Highland 3P qualifies for tax credit so it’s using Panasonic NCA cells not LG NCMA. At least for the US market.

    Getting highland vented/cooled seats for the model Y

    Highly unlikely you’ll be able to have it work like factory (eg integrated into the screen). Maybe can have a physical switch to control it depending how the fan module is controlled.

    2024 Model 3 Performance Announced - Discussion thread post announcement

    Yes. But also keep in mind the lower rated range by about 45 miles and the Performance comes with 20” summer tires. Meaning they are more likely to get damaged and they’ll be more expensive to replace. Also people with winter climates will need separate winter wheels/tires.

    Precondition battery for supercharging before leaving hotel

    Probably so people don’t trigger it by accident while parked and end up with a dead battery. As others mentioned, could be faster to charge upon arrival with a warm battery if the SC is nearby. If it’s further out of the way then it makes less sense to do so. Otherwise just go plug in with a...

    Notice of FSD Installation

    It will come as an OTA update when Tesla decides it should be available for your car. Don’t need to do anything.

    Precondition battery for supercharging before leaving hotel

    The car will not supercharger precondition unless you are in it. You cannot trigger that from the app.

    Poll: When will FSD V12 be in wide release?

    Not me. Not worth anywhere near $8k still unless it becomes tied to account or infinitely transferable. Even then not for me because I don’t plan to be a life long Tesla owner. Subscription is the way to go the vast majority of people. Personally I would only consider subscribing if taking a...

    Poll: Do You Plug In Every Day (for daily driving, home charging)?

    I didn't say lower SOC accelerates degradation. Depth of discharge is the difference between your charge limit and when you plug it in again. 80-60% is 20% depth of discharge 50-30% is also 20% depth of discharge 80-30% is 50% depth of discharge 55-5% is also 50% depth of discharge Basically...

    Tesla drops prices on X/S $20k. All colors free. Bye bye resale

    That’s for a lease and that’s something Porsche Financial did for you to keep you as a customer. Porsche Financial owned the car in that situation and you as a lessee are only on the hook for the remaining lease balance. Many leases already include gap built in that you can’t opt out of. That...

    Tesla drops prices on X/S $20k. All colors free. Bye bye resale

    I’ve never heard of that before. In the event of a total loss on a financed car, the lien holder is paid out the current market value of the vehicle. It’s up to the registered owner to make up any difference between market value and the remaining balance of the loan if there is no gap...

    Looking at used, if it says "Full self-driving computer"? [Does that mean it has FSD?]

    People that purchased FSD originally got a free upgrade to HW3 computer and cameras

    HV Battery Died with 7 miles range left showing on Range display

    Tesla can’t defy the laws of physics and chemistry.

    New headlights retrofit

    Ethernet port started in 2021 or 2022 I believe. You will need the adapter cable

    Does FSD disable USS?

    No
