Looks like a redesigned door card as well that now includes a wood accent from the dash. Alas, still no black headliner! C’mon Elon...

Ok, now that a heated steering wheel is confirmed, I’m definitely putting my order on hold until this makes it to America. Fingers crossed!!!

Honestly, even though I'm generally happy with my MY, with this many updates, including the door glass and self-dimming side mirrors, I'm leaning on trading my '20 MY in once all of this is available in the US, and the upgraded battery pack is available.

I figure the resale value hit will come regardless based on all these updates. I know I already lost $3K when the price was dropped 3 weeks after I took delivery. I don't regret purchasing when I did, but the question will come down to whether I would have made out better with a lease vs. purchase when the time come to either trade or sell.

I'm glad to see this update. HEPA is nice, but a heated steering wheel is one of my non-negotiable requirements for my next car. I'm still not in a position to buy quite yet but this is exciting nonetheless.

For all we know those upgrades might take all year to appear in the US

If you wait, I heard the 2022 model comes with a hot tub.

When New MY comes here in US with all these upgrades and upgraded battery for 30-40miles more of range then we can really start talking about our money well spent.

Cant wait for February....

I also notice the side mirrors in MIC model Y are heated!

I had to VPN to HK so the site doesn’t redirect me. Even then, it flips to Tesla HK from time to time.
