I skimmed this thread and didn't see any mention of it, but do we know if they also added the heated radar from the Model Y?

Let’s hope so. Is anyone planning to dyno their M3P?
Also, I’m not sure if the question of the additional range for the M3 is attributed to the gain in battery capacity or if the “efficiency package” was from just the heat pump and other efficiencies unrelated to the battery. Has this bee settled?
Yes, it was confirmed multiple times.Can anyone confirm if Low Regen is removed from the 2021 Tesla Model 3?
I wonder what the rationale was for this decision; was it based on practicality or some engineering constraint? (Doesn't bother me, personally; I've always driven with full regen + hold.)Yes, it was confirmed multiple times.

People in the states are mostly not that tech savvy and lack the tools to test. Also, they don't really care about capacity as they mostly drive around the house and have enough Superchargers. Not that many LR delivered in the US yet either.Did I miss something here or why isnt this discussed in the states as well
And a sure way to rusty breaks and premature replacement. High regen is good, but you have to have a way of controlling it.That's the way to drive an EV. Regen+hold
Regen + hold isn’t always perfect, so I still end up using the lightly braking regularly (i.e., unexpected braking or poor timing).And a sure way to rusty breaks and premature replacement. High regen is good, but you have to have a way of controlling it.
Also, try doing that on a 10° slope, going down in the snow. Not fun.

That will make it even worse as you will have to keep pushing the break - hence skidding. Low regen is the way to go, normally you use the motor break on ICE and lower the gear in such scenarios, so low regen is equivalent to that.Set the car in neutral, like you would any other automatic
That is most likely because we didn't have hold for a long while and they were in a warm climate. I have seen a bunch of Kias and Leafs that needed break replacement, because of high regen. They just rusted away.If I recall correctly, a Model 3 owner with close to 100k miles had never needed to replace his brake pads. He was notable at the time for having one of, if not the, most driven Model 3’s.

I guess you don't have much practice thenThat will make it even worse as you will have to keep pushing the break - hence skidding. Low regen is the way to go, normally you use the motor break on ICE and lower the gear in such scenarios, so low regen is equivalent to that.
