    Used SR+ purchase help - 2021 Upgrade worth it?

    You are incorrect on the lfp. There were some 253 mi range lfp sr+ released in late 2021, these had less range than the 2022 lfp (rwd) but are highly sought after because they have the performance motor. It's faster than the nca sr+ and much faster than the 2022+ lfp.

    how come RWD SR+ drift and fish tail a bit while driving in straight line on HWY speed on snow day?

    Subaru. Not saying it's not reactive because that's really general word but they are awd full time.

    Welp, we're now a 2 EV household...............and the 2nd EV ISN'T A TESLA!!! (ZOMG111ELEVENTY111!!!!)

    How does it do with identifying charge locations on your route? I test drove an early Ioniq 5, really wanted to buy it but I couldn't find how to have it find routes through chargers when I routed past its range. When i searched it gave me charge locations near where I was not where I will...

    how come RWD SR+ drift and fish tail a bit while driving in straight line on HWY speed on snow day?

    I'm not sure this would help much. The RWD Model 3 is really well balanced front to rear. Adding weight to the back is for RWD cars that have a heavy motor up front and little in the rear. We don't really have that issue on the Model 3 RWD.

    how come RWD SR+ drift and fish tail a bit while driving in straight line on HWY speed on snow day?

    Stock mxm4 are horrible in the snow. I have run the oem mxm4, vikingcontact 7 (similar to your r3s) and crossclimate2 on rwd model 3. I also run r3 on my subaru. The model 3 rwd traction control is great and super quick to respond. I think you and several other responses here are right, you were...

    Updated Suspension for 3 and Y that is 'in production' 10/17 and after

    Yup, this is also my concern. TBH I was very happy with my early Model 3 SR, I'm very happy with my current 21 NCA SR+. I have another 23 LFP RWD coming soon. While I agree that the car can be a bit harsh on some (most?) surfaces, I was expecting it from this type of car. I drive my Subaru if I...

    Updated Suspension for 3 and Y that is 'in production' 10/17 and after

    Link is below which includes the twitter message from Elon. Supposedly 'in production' Model 3 and Y has 'improved comfort, without affecting handling'. Has anyone near Fremont that received a recent one noticed this or know what the change was? I wonder if this goes back a couple weeks to all...

    Tesla Tires at Costco

    I've also run cc2 on model 3 sr+ for over a year. Previously my prior model 3 ran viking contact 7 dedicated winters and oem mxm. Cc2 is very very good in the snow, almost to the level of dedicated winter tires. I would put them similar to economy winter tires like the altimax arctic. I noticed...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I ordered in August not shipped yet. Emailed 3x. Got a response saying it's out of stock even though clearly it isn't. They offered to cancel and refund... if I was desperate for it, I'd cancel and reorder but I can wait so I'll just wait. I think if you want it quickly, do what others have...

    Tesla 2022 Model 3 Tires

    I know this is an old thread... but if anyone wants to try the Pilot Sport 4 ZR18. I have a set of take-offs for sale (only 210 miles on them). I really liked them but went to Cross-Climate 2. For all year around, the CC2 are great, far far better than the MXM! FS: Michelin Pilot Sport 4...

    Discussion : All discussion regarding Model 3 and Tax credit in model 3 subforum

    I think the confusion here is that I think you are suggesting that LFP is not a Lithium Ion Battery. All of the batteries in current EV's are Lithium Ion regardless of the cell geometry (18650, 2170, 4680, Prismatic, Pouch) or cathode material (NCA, NMC, LFP). All of these are 'Lithium Ion...

    Thoughts from current SR / SR+ / RWD owners

    Yup - the CrossClimate2 is also such a tire. How do you like the Vredestein? I was between the two of them when I replaced my OEMs. CC2's are a bit noisy and I see a tiny efficiency loss... otherwise I think they're great (just over 8k miles in). This guy has some good reviews Also if you look...

    Thoughts from current SR / SR+ / RWD owners

    I've had the SR and SR+ in PA. Ground clearance is similar to many cars (5.5"). For example, I think the 2020 Corolla is 5.1", 2020 Camry is 5.7". So that is not a unique problem with the Tesla. It's RWD but there is no engine weight up front so imo it's better than many RWD cars in the snow...

    Comparisons between Autopilot and Highway Driving Assist 2?

    Anyone know of a good video showing what hda2 and blue cruise can do in long distance driving? The only videos I see don't show the road for long stretched. It's hard to guage what it actually can do. Munroe has one on the mach e... it disconnected on a 'sharp' turn on the freeway. I only use...

    Charging port door closes very quickly

    Maybe they reduced the wait time to reuse the same trigger when releasing the light show. Someone should fix it before you get a bunch of charger door warranty repairs.

    FS: Michelin Pilot Sport 4 235/45/ZR18 98Y T0 - PA, NJ, DE, MD, NYC

    Thanks for the offer. I'd prefer to just sell them at this point so I can free up some basement space. I currently have CrossClimate2 and I'm really liking them for all season/mild winter purposes, I don't think I'm going to go back to MXM4s.

    These are still for sale for $800. Photos attached below. They ended up with about 210 miles on them before I had them removed by Costco. They are essentially brand new, they're bagged and stored in climate control. Photos show the actual tires including photos of the foam (T0 version).

    LFP battery in Model 3

    I don't know how correct this is but Tesla just told me the 262mi range and the Monroney sticker showing the above #'s are AVERAGED between LFP and NCA with the LFP being the reason the number dropped from 263 to 262. Both NCA and LFP are shipping with 262 Monroney stickers. If this is true...

    LFP battery in Model 3

    Sorry, I take back my statement.... I just looked at the Monroney for my NCA and it also says 262 range (141mpge, 149 city, 132 highway, 24kwh/100mi), and is exactly the same as my LFP. That's really strange, other recent custom delivery NCA have received the correct 263mi range Monroney - I've...

    LFP battery in Model 3

    It is not. Look at your monroney sticker. It says 262.

    LFP battery in Model 3

    All 262mi listed sr+ should be lfp. I think unless you ordered custom before Sept or August, you likely are getting lfp. Most non demo inventory ones I've seen since August appear to be lfp.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    262mi sr+ are lfp not nca.... it's 262 on the monroney sticker even though most of us still showing 253 on the car. 263mi is the nca battery. Real verification is the weight but all indication (including my monroney page) is that 262/253mi is lfp and 263 is nca... on 18 inch aero.

    LFP battery in Model 3

    Lfp sr+ has performance rear motor. Some believe this is why 0to60 rated stayed the same despite the extra 260lb weight. Note that the lfp usable battery capacity is also larger than nca to achieve similar range with the weight hit. Biggest unknown is cold weather range and performance. I...
