Are Recent MYLR Builds Coming With the New/Redesigned Headlights?

[ucsdsig]

A colleague of mine is planning on ordering a MYLR. Are newer builds arriving with the redesigned headlights?

For reference: Tesla now manufacturing Model Y's with new headlights

@ucsdsig no, only the Performance models include the updated headlights so far.

More info on these threads:

Model Y with new headlights

A member of the Facebook Model Y group just posted that his new Model Y with a build date of 2/11 and VIN # 124,xxx was delivered with new headlights, new console, and a heated steering wheel. He took delivery in California. He wasn't sure about the HEPA filter.

New Headlights On Model Y Build Your Own?

Looks like the new headlights are on the Model Y Build Your Own tool. They seem to have a bit of a smoked tint to them. No new center console yet though. Design Your Model Y | Tesla

(I think there are a few more too.)

Yeah, I've seem those threads. But no recent posts. Was wondering if they were starting to appear in recent VINs (like the supposed larger 82kWh batteries on recent MYRL builds). Thanks.

@ucsdsig I think it's safe to assume that we will definitely hear when (if?) the first LR MYs start showing up with the updated lights.

Couple of things:

The “new” headlights will show up on non-performance models whenever Telsa is ready. However, they won’t necessarily function any better/different due to DOT regulations. They are “wasted” when fitted to North American bound Tesla’s and why they are even on the MYP without the full functionality is strange and a waste of money.

82kwh battery… this is a strange topic. Some people believe that the MYP has a 82 kWh pack while the MYLR has a 75kwh pack. I have a MYLR. According to my own research on my car, I have a 82kwh pack but the system has it recognized as only a 75.. my neighbor has a MYP and the analysis of his car shows an 82 and is recognized as usable by the system.

I believe that Tesla only ships one battery for the MY, and depending on trim it is configured accordingly. This is what I believe based on my own research. The problem with the Internet, message boards, YouTube etc.. is that A LOT of information gets thrown in the blender and comes out a little mixed up.

Any Model Y with new projector headlights in the USA?

Either way, if the projector HL are as advanced as people say, there should be a higher cost, possibly significant, per unit. That could be so; I think someone did show a high replacemt-parts cost for new compared to old headlights, but i dont recall the specifics. OTOH, the beautiful thing...
