Anyone received delivery of 2019 'Raven' Refresh?

[TexasTeslaRacing]

My AC is blowing super cold and it's a five seater. 105 deg outside and I'm setting it at 72 inside. Rear passengers say it's cold in the back.

Correct. My 2016 MCU1 X was the same way.

My 2019 MCU2 X is different.

Thanks - didn't know there was a difference. Guess I have MCU1 even on my 2017 S

Correct. Production changeover in February 2018:

MCU1 to MCU2 | TeslaTap

I’m curious if anyone has placed an order within the last couple of weeks and if you’ve gotten an update on production. We placed an order on the 6th and I’m trying to get an idea of when production will start for our X

For what it's worth, my order in May was in production at the factory just under four weeks after I placed it, and available for delivery a week after that.

They usually prioritize international orders early in the quarter, and domestic later in the quarter, but I don't know how strong that effect is.

I believe they build LHD and RHD cars back to back on the same line interchangeably these days, so they can presumably slide different countries in just as easily.

With both my cars, there was no communication from shortly after I ordered until about a week before delivery.

Factory is adding new production equipment. Might be causing a delay in getting your X. Check with your delivery specialist.

The wait is often the worst part of buying a new Tesla.

Agreed!

Does the Raven suspension still camber the rear wheels when lowered?

What is the rated Wh/mi to get 325mi on the long range version?

 

[OhHeyThere]

Curious of turnaround time for the X. Right now it says 2 weeks. Should I assume longer?

The reason I ask; I turned in my lease today, go on vacation tomorrow and am gone for 2.5 weeks. Curious what everyone's experience has been.

Cheers

I placed my order last Saturday and just got the email that mine will be ready next week.

Thanks for the heads up! Super helpful.

What did you end up going with?

I just placed an order today in a store and was told 2 weeks. We shall see!

Standard range,Pearl white, 22", 6 seat white.

I think (haven't ordered yet)

Ask your local dealership to take an extended test drive for a day or two. That will make you place the order.

 

[OhHeyThere]

Interesting. I didn't know they did that. Did you have them do this for you?

We did. We basically had the car for almost a day and a half. We wanted to make sure it was what we wanted. We made sure the kids were able to get in and out easily and fit in our garage. We weren’t able to do that on the hour test drive we had because our kids weren’t with us. We actually got a chance to treat it like it was ours without the pressure of a sales person sitting next to you while driving. We were sold as soon and we knew it fit in the garage with our other car.

What is the rated Wh/mi to get 325mi on the long range version?

Assuming you can use the full 100kWh battery pack, a ridiculous 308wh/mi. Seems very low.

Project Raven cars are crazy efficient.

My average in a Performance Ludicrous Raven X for an 8k+ roadtrip done mostly at 75 mph (with several hours of 80 mph even, in Utah and Texas) came out at 315 Wh/mile, so I think the 308 is quite plausible for the LR in the typical 65-70 mph range where rated range is usually achieved.
