    Wait for 82 kWh battery?

    **one additional note: the main reason I went with the 'New inventory' car is that I want the 19" Gemini wheels. I want these for: -softer ride on rough terrain -better range Is there any way to get 19" Gemini wheels (or even the 20" wheels) when ordering a new Model Y? ( I didn't see...

    Hey All, Thank you all for the great information. I have attached two photos which show the exact configuration of my car, as Dennis requested. Can you guys let me know what I need to ask the service team when I go for my appointment on Nov 17th in order to: -Achieve my goal of being...

    Will I get FSD with MCU1?

    Can you provide some documentation or proof for the statement 'those above are not powerful enough for FSD' Let's make sure we are using FSD in the same way I defined FSD as 'the FSD capabilities which are on par with the furthest advanced FSD which is available to beta testers' I do not...

    Will I get FSD with MCU1?

    do you currently have FSD working in your car (are you part of the demo)? "PSD is great with that, plus it speeds up...." Can you clarify what is HW3. and how does that relate to AP2.0. 2.5 0r 3.0. ?

    Any word of increased range Model Y in the works? 350+ mile range?

    How do I order a 'stealth' performance model?

    Any word of increased range Model Y in the works? 350+ mile range?

    Ok, thanks guys. On the Model X, the 22" wheels compared to the 20" lead to a significant range reduction. (10-15%). Thats per some really reliable sources on the MX forums Is there any data out there about the 21" uberturbine wheels and how much of the range decrease from LR to Performance...

    Any word of increased range Model Y in the works? 350+ mile range?

    Hi All, I'm considering ordering a Model Y and want to know if there's any rumor or word on the street that a 350+ range version may be coming soon? If so, I might wait a month or two.... Regards, Michael

    What is realistic range on 2021 Raven 371 mile EPA rated?

    Do you know what is the realistic range on 2021 Raven 371 mile EPA rated MX? Teslike.com Is there something like that chart, but updated with 2020 and 2021? It sounds like in winter 20 F - 40 F we are all (2017-2021) pretty much limited to 200-220 miles...... is that a safe...

    Anyone have a solution for uncomfortable front Seat?

    Wow, so even though the bottom cushion side bolsters appear to be the same in the photos......the seat feels totally different? Just to confirm: You felt squeezed by the bottom cushion in the 2018 and no longer have that problem in the 2020?

    Anyone have a solution for uncomfortable front Seat?

    wow, the same frame as the Model 3? How can you be sure? If so, that's a HUGE improvement. I have seen the 'bare frame' photos of both the 2017 Model X. (Gen1) seats and the Model 3 seats....totally different....Tesla made a big mistake and in the Gen1 MX seats, they designed the frame so...

    is there a way for tesla to upgrade seats

    is there a way for tesla to upgrade seats

    Vaibhav, Can you let me know what that process was like in terms of interacting with the service center and getting it done? I have a 2017 MX and the bottom cushion is squeezing my legs and causing significant discomfort. Was this the same experience for you? Did you upgrade to the 2020...

    Model X driver seat issue

    EVBud, Can I ask you a few questions to help me understand what my experience of improving the seats may be? When did you have these seats replaced? Did they replace them with the Gen2 2020 seats? Does the bottom cushion feel way different? Did the SC work with you and do it for free...

    Model X driver seat issue

    Did you come up with any solution to the seat problem? I have a 2017 X with Gen 1 seats I find the bottom cushion to be uncomfortable after 40+ minutes of driving The bolsters which rise up on either side squeeze the sides of my thighs and lead to almost a numbing sensation, I find myself...

    Can 2019 front seats be changed to 2020?

    Thanks VikH! When you say more pronounced, do you mean that you the headrest is positioned more forward than would be ideal? (like you can't really straighten your head up like you would like b/c u feel it back there?) I have run searches on the forums for the last 15 minutes and not found...

    Model X inventory?

    holy cow!!! The data does not lie. This really surprised me. Well I'm feeling pretty good about getting the 20" wheels. Thats really not right for them to not re-rate the car with the 22" wheels to lower. It also is interesting to see that the difference in range between the 2019...

    Model X inventory?

    I appreciate this information, can you provide some reference to support this? I find 15% range hit, even 10 % due to wheel difference very hard to believe. Here's why: The vast majority of resistance to forward motion comes from the cross sectional area presented when looking at the...

    Went to pick up Used Model X.....lots of rust and pitting on brake calipers....

    The -25% is in the 'energy' menu..... click on not 'consumption'. but the other option...... this is the line graph that shows your predicted and actual energy usage from Origin to Destination. This goes down to -25% This fact would imply that that a -10% is indeed possible. This may be...

    Thank you for the tip, I'm going to check the 'always connected' box right now.... The way I feel about your first comments: If the car is not designed to go down to 0%, the instruments in the car should be calibrated such that 0% =. __%. (whatever percent IS acceptable to go down...

    How many KW are you pulling at Ver 3 Superchargers?

    For you guys that are hitting 198-201 kW, how long is that sustained for? When it drops down, what rate do you stay at for the 30 minutes or so following your 'drop down' from ~200kW Also, can anyone explain how and why some people get their supercharge rate capped?

    Range concerns on 2017 200D I bought a week ago

    Martin, Thank you for the reassurance. Its a steep learning curve with the Tesla.... I have a regular round-trip I make to Chicago, which is 180miles each way..... there is a charger about 120 miles into the trip, and 170 miles into the trip..... I guess I'll figure it out trial by error...

    Battery warranty now capped at 120K miles?

    Oddly enough if you look at the Used inventory on Teslas website (u can access thru ev cpo if u like). they have 'unlimited miles The new inventory has 150,000 mile limit... If you bought it with 'unlimited miles' it can't be retroactively changed thats probably why the used ones on...

    Thank you for the support guys. Is there anything I can do to fold down this center seat? Is it possible to totally remove it with the right tools? Im pretty sure I can fit my cannondale road bike in back here, with the wheel taken off, even with the ‘center seat immovible’ Thoughts?

    Buy Used Model X with 2 Accidents?

    worth saying that the advice of: "wait until the end of the month". may, in the future, be better stated as 'wait until 10 days before the end of the month'. Reason being: depending on how fast the customer is, it would take 5-15 days between the $100 deposit and vehicle delivery.....so if...
