2023 Model Y RWD vin assignment
- Thread starter Mr.Slow
- Start date
That's strange. I ordered RWD on Oct 15th, and today , I got a notice to schedule an appointment on November 17th for delivery. So I should have mine this Friday.
I'll report back once I get it. north Jersey here.
Thanks... Yeah I just had to talk to about 10 ppl and get a new VIN assigned. All sorted now but I know I am not the only one this happened to now. I'm just hoping for a delivery this year otherwise I will cancel the vehicle. Need the tax credit...
Had the exact thing happen to me around 2PM EST. I had the VIN + EDD and all of a sudden got an email from Tesla about a new agreement. I had to drive to the dealership and talk to someone for 2 hours before I got a new VIN assigned and new EDD. I refused to leave before I knew I would be getting it for the same price. I too had an inventory discount. For what it's worth they told me the VIN I was assigned was not being built anymore and therefore I was unmatched. Take that as you will.
Couple people on Reddit who live in NJ are taking delivery this Friday. As far as I know they are the first ones I've seen taking RWD delivery.
Hope they assigned you a VIN / taken delivery. I ordered on 11/02. No assignment yet, I’m worried abt Jan 1. If it’s not going happen, I’m thinking if I upgrade to long range.
RWDs have started being delivered this week in the US so hopefully you can get yours before Jan 1.
I'm upgrading to LR anyways. I really wanted LFP and the RWD in the US isn't getting that. So it's LR for me.
I don't know that we know that for sure. The MY RWD is limited to 170 kW max charging, which is typically the max rate for the LFP batteries.
Cheapest Model Y ever? Tesla starts selling Model Y RWD in US for $44k
While we've seen lower MSRPs, those were only available for a short while, and the new Model Y RWD can get the $7,500 tax credit.

Will be interesting to see whether some of those picking up this week can 'confirm' LFP with Tesla.... Perhaps with ability to charge to 100% more frequently.
I’m certainly hoping this but the one I test drove was not LFP and the SA confirmed they weren’t LFP. Still hoping (if my vehicle ever gets here) that they will have switched to LFP at the last minute to fulfill orders…
Such a weird back and forth…
I posted the question in the app but of course got the RWD has NCA batteries like the Long Range AWD …
Sure sounds like there is a lot of hazy info on this model y. Really wish that they would just state it all specific terms but the ethos of the company I’m discovering doesn’t seem to do that… (I’m still hopeful but also since I test drove one that had the NCA very confused.)

I know someone picking up theirs today so hopefully they can confirm.
Picked up the RWD today at Paramus NJ.
I believe the following screenshot confirms it's not LFP. The advisor told me it was LFP when I asked today. I don't think they have a clue honestly.
No scratches, basic autopilot worked well on the fairly short ten mile drive home. At 80 percent max charge, range reports as 205 miles.
I'm in NJ, so after 4k pos credit , no sales tax (3k savings ) and the 7500 fed credit I'll get on my tax return, it's the same price effectively as buying a $31k ICE vehicle
Let me know if y'all have questions.

Just want to congrats you on being the first to take delivery. Honestly gave me hope these cars are actually going to be delivered to us. Did you spot any more RWD at the dealership?
Also can you share when you ordered and what your build was?
I am in NJ as well, my EDD has been pushed back to 11/27-12/6. I noticed today, the $4K NJ POS credit no longer appears on my Price details, and the NJ Charge Up application that was prefilled shortly after I ordered is now missing in my documents. The NJ charge up website still shows about $5M remaining. Hoping the funds have not run out before I can finalized my purchase, if it does then I plan on cancelling.
