Anyone received delivery of 2019 'Raven' Refresh?

We also have a Model 3 and it charges at the same 48A but its getting 45 miles per hour range added. My New s, is only getting 36 miles per hour added. I would think they should at least be the same. at 36 miles per hour, much more time is needed to charge a 100KW pack

And a legacy S would have been less than that. They're both charging at 240V at 48A, but the S isn't as efficient as the 3, so while it's the same amount of energy going into the battery, it's fewer rated miles of range per hour.
 
yeah I think the miles per hour may be misleading based on avg energy consumption conversion. you should check on how may kW per hour instead of the miles

as miles per kWatt spec is different for model 3, model S, and X from weight, efficiency stand point

Tesla Model 3: 23,7 kWh/100 miles – 14,73 kWh/100 km

Tesla Model S: 34,4 kWh/100 miles – 21,38 kWh/100 km

Tesla Model X: 36,9 kWh/100 miles – 22,93 kWh/100 km

so if you charge 1 kWh in model 3 you're going to get more miles vs 1 kWh in model S/X

My delivery specialist just let me know that my Model X Standard Range is scheduled to be delivered to the service center this Friday (June 14th) and, if so, we could take delivery Saturday. Beginning to feel the end of the quarter rush finally starting.

Interesting, yeah

But your model 3 pack is only 70 or so kWh. Here’s some info from tesla that has a charging speed table: Wall Connector

Raven models will be just a bit higher, maybe ten percent, just because they are more efficient with energy use.

another reason to display battery percentage instead of rated range

both cars will charge at the same ~10-11 kW

All the trim on the dash that's supposed to be white. It was white on my last model X.

And for reference, here's a pic of my last Model X:

Heya,


Can those of you that are getting the Black and White interior delivered with an ALL black dashboard confirm that this is singular to the Performance model with carbon fiber trim???? I ordered a Model X SR with black and white interior and I definitely want the white and black dash as shown in the design center. An all black dash is a deal breaker

for me.

Hey, when did you place your order? I placed a model x standard order on the 1st and have no updates from them yet. Thanks.
 
I placed my order on the 24th after having to change my order for the Raven refresh ... It's nice to see the Standard Range orders starting to be delivered.

Thanks for the quick reply. That gives me some hope they might get mine done before the end of the month. I considered long range but felt that the number of times I’d actually use that vs just stopping as a supercharger on the occasional long distance trip wasn’t worth it so went with standard.
 
Interesting -- thanks @Saghost

It looks like some of the brake hose reroute/rebracketing and other "minor" changes (I'm guessing the camber is reoptimized as well) allow the car to cruise closer to the ground than prior model, which, with lower rolling resistance tires, is largely where the range improvement is coming from, IMO. Running the car closer to the ground also means tightening the damping up to prevent undershoot after a bump in the road, which may be primary as to why the magnetic shocks.

It was strange that the dust bellows were missing. Another design factor in slamming the car more, I'd think.

Sad that they're resorting to eventually using Minke-Whale oil for new wheel bearings, though. With the craptasticness and energy loss in the CV joints, wheel bearings seem like a mice-nut sized contribution to range improvement. The lowering also probably lines up the CV joint into a more efficient zero-clunk geometry.

All stuff they could have done/offered day 1.

Now the problem for Tesla becomes the flooding of the market with pre-owned MS and MX with Flintstones suspensions and the "Osborne Effect" of people waiting for better.
