    Version 12 UI Update - Regen Indicator straight up sucks - How do we get it moved back?

    Regular 2019 M3 LR here - I received the v12 UI update last night and the first thing I noticed is the regen indicator (aka power use/regen indicator visulaization) that was previously located as a horizontal line in the top center has been moved to a tiny ~2 pixel vertical bar that has no...

    Tips how to keep my battery healthy using mostly fast charger all the time?

    1) Avoid keeping the vehicle at a high state of charge (when possible) 2) Avoid keeping the vehicle at a high state of charge when temperatures are hot (ie in hot climates) 3) There is less degradation when battery operates in the middle of its capacity range so it's better to go from 30%-80%...

    Regen braking reduced?

    Agree with others - the "regen curve" is not the same. Even going from 75 MPH to 0 (at a freeway off ramp), my model 3 will not create the amount of electrical regen it did years ago. Max regen around town (on the consumption screen) has diminished at least 20%. That said, my battery...

    Have you noticed a loss of MAX regen after the last two vehicle software updates? (Original LR RWD 310 mile owners)

    Thank you! Those posts describe it perfectly. The "green regen bar" (the amount of power going back into the battery) is definitely been reduced for some time. Thank you for posting the links!

    Have you noticed a loss of MAX regen after the last two vehicle software updates? (Original LR RWD 310 mile owners)

    Should have added the following: Has nothing to do with state of charge. Vehicle is never charged above 80% Nothing to do with colder temperatures. We're talking about May, June, July, and August in metro Phoenix. If anything we're talking about over 110 ambient air temperature (and 130+ degree...

    Have you noticed a loss of MAX regen after the last two vehicle software updates? (Original LR RWD 310 mile owners)

    Original 2019 Long Range RWD Model 3 (310 miles). I've noticed a significant reduction in the maximum regen along with a corresponding reduction in how quickly the vehicle begins to slow down during one pedal driving, all due to the software updates earlier this year (the last 2-3 months). In...

    Charging Stats in App Gone

    Charge Stats Disappears in Mobile App - Charge Stats not showing August data - Similar to others posting above, I noticed that Charge Stats thru the middle of July were correct - then I had no data points from July 17 to now. However, charge stats was still visible on my mobile app. Then, out...

    Displayed Range, Watts/Mile, Calculated Battery Capacity on 2021/2022 Model 3s

    How does this compare to any 2021 / 2022 AWDs or M3Ps? 2019 LR RWD March 2019 delivery 19” Rims 22,000 miles ~68 kWh calculated battery capacity (this feels like a big drop) 231 watts / mile lifetime (20% highway / 80 % city driving) ~288-290 displayed range at 100% (using app slider)

    Displayed Range, Watts/Mile, Calculated Battery Capacity on 2021/2022 Model 3s

    I am considering trading my 2019 LR RWD Model 3 with 19” rims for a 2022 M3P or 2022 M3 AWD. I am trying to judge the real-world range and battery capacity that I would have in a new car. I’d lose radar, and homelink. I’d pick up acceleration and restart the warranty. Not sure what my real...

    Cycling through radio presets

    2019 Model 3 just updated to 2022.16.2 in hopes of fixing the dashcam USB not working error. I have same problem as noted above. The left thumb wheel no longer selects the next/previous favorite radio station. Instead, appears to change the source and renders an error message that premium...

    Stealth Performance P3D- Back in Stock !! Black Interiors with 19" Rims

    Just got a call from my Tesla Advisor and we have more Stealth Performance P3D- in stock sitting on the east coast. Contact your local Tesla Advisor or message me if you want my advisor name or referral code (good for 1,000 miles of free supercharging). All of them are black interior with 19" rims.

    Serious Price FIxing SCAM new M3 Long range

    This entire post has all the tell tale signs of trolling and FUD. Ignoring the classic signs of improper english, grammar & syntax, very little of this story holds water. Any Model 3 owner will tell you this car definitely exceeds the "feel" of a $35k vehicle. MIDRANGEORDER == short...

    Closing the frunk

    Thank you for posting this. My delivery specialist specifically showed me how to "slam" the frunk shut and specially stated that you are supposed to to push down very hard on the "T" logo .... Of course, this hasn't worked in real practice and I was about to schedule service because the frunk...

    Adding to this thread that firmware 2019.5.15 is corrupting any and all USB / SD cards I use including Sandisk Extreme, Samsung EVO and PNY cards. Currently both Sentry Mode and TeslaCam / Dashcam video recordings are inoperable for all practical purposes.... At least for me. It may...

    Restarting this thread. TeslaCam / Dashcam is corrupting all of my SD cards (USB >> microSD). This includes Samsung EVO cards, Sandisk Extreme and PNY cards. After reformatting the cards, it may recognize the card and start working for a few minutes.... The longest I have driven is 5 minutes...

    Salesman said my order would reflect new pricing, but lied or was wrong...

    I just spoke with Order Support specialist "Josh" at the order support call center in Las Vegas. He stated that everyone who wants a lower price has to cancel the order and place a new order. If you log into your Tesla account and look at your order agreement, that is the number they expect...

    Thinking about joining legal action on recent massive price cut

    This is the often cited legal basis of "millennial entitlement" caused by an abnormally skewed view of ones own importance which is usually directly correlated to the amount of posts and time they spend on facebook, instagram and twitter. It's a part of English Common law dating way back to 2009.

    Thinking about joining legal action on recent massive price cut

    I'm with you. My Dell computer, Samsung phone, Samsung TV and Restoration Hardware furniture is literally worth half of what I paid for it just a few months ago. We definitely need to sue. Don't get me started on the major haircut I took on my Viking Applicences an the 48" wolf range. We...

    Isn't this a given (that Tesla will adjust your price down) since you would otherwise "return" the car and reorder it for less ?

    "Off menu" waiting room

    Some of us did wait! And we refused to be bullied into cancelling our order, upgrading to AWD or downgrading to a mythical Mid Range option that no one ever asked for. We also refused to cancel and voluntarily forgo the referral enticement in place at the time ( free supercharging) just...

    "Off menu" waiting room

    I would remind anyone else that has this unique problem that you do not have to accept either "option" given in that canned email. Let Tesla default on their own. Tesla is unilaterally agreeing to break their promise. You have ordered prior to 11/30/2018 and Tesla has promised to deliver...

    "Off menu" waiting room

    You are sadly wrong. All parties have agreed to digital consent. There is a meeting of the minds and consideration was given on both sides. Once they take your $2,500 the Contract is enforceable. This is why the liquidated damages clause of the Contract can be used to keep your $2,500 if you...

    "Off menu" waiting room

    The Motor Vehicle Purchase Agreement is a Contract. This is an exchange of promises. Telsa promised to sell me (and others) a LR RWD with white interior, I promised to pay ~ $55k and provided a $3,500 deposit (which forms the "consideration" aspect of the Contract). Telsa can honor their side...

    "Off menu" waiting room

    I don't believe you will ever see the LR RWD Model 3 again. It is essentially superior to every model S except the P100D. Tesla will upgrade the Model S to use the 2170 batteries so the range on the MS is on par with the Model 3 and they will continue to build only dual motor Model 3s ...

    "Off menu" waiting room

    ** Just like the P3D pricing change, there is safety in numbers. Everyone who has a Motor Vehicle Purchase Agreement for a Long Range with a White Interior should give Tesla the option of making the car or providing the LR AWD for the same price. There is no reason you should feel obligated to...

    Mid Range waiting room

    This thread fully illustrates why Tesla should NOT produce a cheap SR version. There is no business value in trying to cater to the cheapest of the cheap. Tesla does not need to be the Wal-Mart of the auto industry. They have 1 factory and a TENT. That's it. Build the SR when you have 5...

    Mid Range waiting room

    What is the point of this rant? Tesla makes 100% of their own interiors and they have the option to make 100% black seats or 100% white seats on any given day. If they so choose, they can fabricate white seats for the next 4 months straight. They have been offering white interiors on their...

    Did you order BLACK or WHITE inteior with your Model 3 ??

    It seems like they have a large 'spec' inventory of AWD with WHITE interiors positioned around the country. This could help explain why LR RWD was taken off menu.

    Mid Range waiting room

    Tesla does not "source" their seats. They build them all in house. They can build 100% white seats if they have the desire. The most recent poll on this website shows roughly 50% of all orders are for the WHITE interior and Tesla lowered the price from $1,500 to $1,000 probably to optimize...

    Will LR RWD make a comeback when the SR is released?

    I don't believe so. Here is why: • The LR RWD essentially kills both the Model X 75 and the Model S 75. Here is a link to the range chart for all Tesla models: !! Tesla Range Chart Based on Model, Battery, Wheels and MPH !! (from Model 3 Owners Club) • r/teslamotors • I feel like Telsa wants...

    Anyone still waiting for silver delivery?

    Silver with WHITE interior is absoutly the best looking Model 3 in my opinion. I wanted this since the Day 1 reveal and was very disappointed that they removed this color from the option lineup. Your car (and house!) look amazing !!

    Did you order BLACK or WHITE inteior with your Model 3 ??

    Yes - anyone with a pending LR RWD order who did NOT have a VIN could select WHITE as an interior option starting on 10.18 when the new online configurator was released. Prior to 10.18 you needed AWD to have the WHITE option.

    Here is what I know.... There may or may not hsvr inventory LR Model 3 floating around ?? What you are most likely referring to is ordering the LR RWD off menu. This was available from 10/18ish to roughly 10/25ish You had to order a mid range and ask customer service to switch batteries and...

    Did you order BLACK or WHITE inteior with your Model 3 ??

    Yes it was available starting on 10/18 when Tesla released the MR 2WD and removed the LR 2WD ... during this time ANYONE with a pending LR RWD order could manually log in and change the black interior to white for $1000' People without pending orders simply ordered an MR with WHITE interior...

    Did you order BLACK or WHITE inteior with your Model 3 ??

    You are correct that the LR RWDs made before 10/18 were only available in black which is why the main google spreadsheet is not statically valid to track what people are ordering now. This poll appears to be working as intended .... with roughly ~60% ordering black and ~40% ordering white.

    Did you order BLACK or WHITE inteior with your Model 3 ??

    Those statistics will not be valid because the vast majority of the data points are based on the LR RWD which did not have an option to select a WHITE interior until 10/18 when it was removed from the online configurator. Meaning something like 4 to 1 of all cars in the spreadsheet could only...
