The pic was very good.
Good morning, Mr. Platylover. My sincere thanks for the photo and the video. Your car really already has the updated / remodeled battery pack, with some design differences for the older models, which may suggest weight reduction perhaps, or use of stronger new feedstocks. These are small differences that I have pointed out. Thank you very much for your time for this.

The pack form factor has definitely not changed.

Sorry, but they made some changes. See above. I post a pic. Thanks

Can you be more specific? Your pics are of two different sides of the pack and don't show any obvious differences.

Good morning, in the previous version there were 3 longitudinal bars in the battery pack and now there is only one bar in the middle. Those bars are made to reinforce the pack against beats. Thanks

Ah, I see what you mean now.

Huh. That was unexpected.

All the guidance we've been given was that the Raven battery packs would be the same as recent past cars.

Yep. My non raven X only has one bar in the middle of the battery pack

Your car is my2018 or my2019?

 

[Saghost]

Your car my2018 or my2019?

With Tesla, there are no model years, only build dates.

Actually, I do not know of battery pack change internally, but rather, that there was external change in the enclosure.

OK. I'll rephrase the question. Your car was made in which year?

 

[Zaxxon]

This would be my guess, as well. Change to the enclosure. I cannot imagine they changed the internals significantly.

I agree. To me seems design changes, only. Will see..

with telsa model year is the same as build date. all telsa's do in fact have a model year, DMV and every insurance company requires one. Telsa simply uses Jan1-Dec31 build date to classify the model year.

I just walked out to my garage, I have the redesigned pack. My X is a 2019 non-raven that I took delivery of in March.

 

[redgt]

What is the last letter of the part number though?

I just confirmed our non-raven 2019 Model X with AP3 looks the same as the raven battery in post 521, with one line down the middle. We did notice that the raven had battery part number 1086755-00-E but the non-raven from a few weeks earlier is 1086755-00-D. Both are labeled 100 kWh, 400 VDC.

I'm wondering if the new raven cars include the new hardware that European cars have which allow the use of the CCS adapter.

Personally, from what I realize, the cars made in 2019, may already be with this redesigned package.

I thought they changed the chargeport hardware to enable CCS, not anything in the pack.
