2018 MX Options?

[ark205]

I am looking at a 2018 100D on a mega corporate car lot tomorrow. What options were available in 2018? Any interior upgrades? I am familiar with determining which AP/FSD, HW it may have but wanted to make sure I could spec the interior.

Thank you

A few things happened in 2018. First, MCU was upgraded from MCU1 to MCU2 starting mid-March, give or take. Then approximately starting mid summer (possibly late Aug), the Premium Upgrade Package & Upgraded Stereo became standard. Prior to this point, those two were options, and were not on all X's.

When you get into the car, touch the Car icon in the lower left. Go into Software, and click Additional Vehicle Options. That will tell you:
Base Audio or Premium Audio
Tow Package?
Cold Weather Package?
MCU Processor (Nvidia Tegra = MCU1, Intel Atom = MCU2

To find out if it has the Premium Upgrade Package, go into HVAC controls. If it has Bioweapons Defence Mode, then it has it.

I had never seen that list, and at first thought it was a great find. But found a number of things wrong with just a quick perusal of it. For example:

The 7 seat monopost to bench design change happened mid 2017, not in 2016.

HW2.5 started August 2017, not 2018.

Thank you. I am less concerned about HW and MCU as from 2018 on they can be upgraded. I want to make sure the car has all of the available interior options.

Interior trim was updated from natural aluminum to dark gray aluminum in May of 2018.

Certain color combinations were added/replaced around April 2018. The beige/saddle interior was added around that time. I know we never ordered that interior but ended up with it because they dropped our original color. It turns out we really like it and ordered it in our replacement X

Any differences in max. charging speeds? Didn't this change around 2018?

2018s were capable of charging at 72 amps on shore power. Newer models dropped that back to 48 amps.
