I would say 4-5months. People with 1 year wait are with the pre-price hike orders. If you are located near Fremont then it could be sooner.
Note: Its just my estimation based on reading different threads.

Early '22 Exterior Refresh Tracking (Lights, Charging Door, Appliqué delete)

I am sure I am not the only one wondering if the delay is in response to any reputed changes. Then again we all have our reasons if we need to delay.
I've been through enough Tesla FOMO to last a lifetime. I missed a few things earlier on my Y that came out later. At the same time, I got mine too late and lost the radar and passenger lumbar support.
The thing that would irk me the most is if I would miss out on any headlight changes. I might seriously consider selling mine or look at the cost to retrofit (assuming it was possible and not even more crazily expensive than the current lights).
Wow. Guy says he’s delaying his S and all of a sudden 4680’s come into play as a possible reason. 
This is a fun forum!!!

The plaid ships fastest. The LR seems to be the long wait as price/value is apparent.
3.1 sec (w/out roll out fyi) 400miles, same exact look/style and features. Sweet spot trim level for most.

I would bet money that the reason they changed the name from “model s long range” to “model s” is that whenever the new 4680 model s comes out, it will have a new sub model. So likely anyone with a current model s order would not be grandfathered into that version and be stuck at what would become the entry level car unless you placed a new order.
At this point, I am just rolling with what I get. I am in at a good price so I can sit a bit and see if the changes are enough to make me want to "upgrade". The current range is good enough. Performance is excellent for the $$$. Only thing I don't really like is the current headlights.
Finally got a sort of narrow window for my delivery of 2/4-2/18. I am good with that at this point. Slim chance of getting the new headlights but better than if I had taken delivery in late Nov and would have had a 2021 model.

Mine is slated for end of march but I’m considering waiting for new headlights. I guess we’ll see if anything is announced before then.

Tesla called me last week. I have had a MS LR on order since July 1. They apologized for having to delay my VIN and noted the MS production has had a delayed due to “production quality control” .. hmmm. Perhaps some changes and QA.. I’m expecting an update in Feb
I feel like this has a better shot at being retrofittable than the lights - this is replacing the airbag module on an existing yoke, doesn't look like the yoke itself is changing.
While they are at it, can they just ditch the yoke since any real variable steering ratio is long ways off, and give us a real wheel back?
Nice! I’m holding out a lot of hope that the 2023 model year will be more polished since that’s when I’ll be buying (Dec 22 is when I plan to place my order). Here’s what I hope to see on the 2023 model. They’re deal breakers for me.
1. Fix for the vibration issue
2. Refreshed headlights and taillights. No more appliqué.
That’s it!

The yoke itself would have to change. There would have to be a switch of sort sort, plus the removal of the horn button on the yoke in favor of something else. I’m guessing it’s an entirely new yoke and center airbag piece.
I actually could care less where the horn is, but if they are indeed replacing the horn button location with something else, e.g. a customizable favorites button, I'll be sad as the current yoke desperately lacks convenience accessibility.
