Thank you! One question more. Do you think that what they told me by text message could be wrong? or there is no doubt that I will receive an intel processor?
If they told you it was intel then it’s likely intel. Can you postpone? It might be worth it if you’re willing to wait a month or two. My hope is that the Hertz orders get the intel chips and they use them all up in the next few weeks.
I've already postponed once, but before I get the VIN, do you think I'll be able to postpone one more time?
Fake responses. One name is mike hawk (my cock). and the other is hahayes......
A FB user supposedly confirmed with his SA that his model 3 LR has ryzen. VIN 161xxx range. Hopefully true
I am in 161XXX range and my SA confirmed Intel. I don't think SA's really know
I don't think they know either. The safest and easiest response is to say Intel because it lowers expectations and if you get the Ryzen you won't care your SA is lazy. Just my two cents.
well, I’ve asked multiple SA’s prior to delivery to confirm if I had the AMD chip or not and all sounded very certain I had the chip after they dug around. Some weren’t sure at first but they said they would take a deeper look and was able to see my car showed it had a newer computer code name called INFO-Z or something whereas the previous computers were called something else internally. My car did indeed have AMD when I picked it up. MYLR built on 1/6.
They can look it up, per my conversation they can see the chip. Model 3s just aren’t getting them besides select one I saw on this forum. I got vin for new production 3 and she looked up info and told me said Intel than Ryzen. I told them to give my vin away. The recent built Ys are getting the ryzen

The 2022 M3LR is less efficient than the 2021 M3LR based on the EPA rating, but overall it has more range. Not sure the difference can be attributed to just the AMD Ryzen, but probably a combination of changes they made between what the EPA tested. Although the 2022 is less efficient, it has more range, but the difference is small - 5 miles. I'm waiting for a VIN as of Monday. Delivery ETA is April right now. I have my fingers crossed for the AMD chip, but the bigger thing I'm hoping for is the Li-Ion 12v battery. Having gone through the lead acid batteries every 18 - 24 months in my old Model S, I'm looking forward to not replacing the 12v as frequently.
Likely an increase in the battery capacity between model years tested by the EPA. I'm not sure what the battery specs are between the 2021 M3LR and the 2022.
