So I ordered my new SR+ today. Yay Won't be here till March. Boo. This is the very definition of mixed emotions.
Congrats! Welcome to the long wait You’ll be getting the new stuff, heat pump octo valve, new console etc What colour did you decide on.
Think on the bright side. You are getting the refreshed model which has longer range, double glazed windows, nicer wheels, nicer centre console, more secure place for storing Sentry USB and it comes with a USB stick I think.
You might not have to wait that one. The one I ordered in June said it was two months. Ended up being three weeks.
Production for International orders happens at the beginning of each quarter to give Tesla time to ship and deliver the car in the same quarter. So you have missed this quarter production by some distance. Right now they would be making cars for North America almost exclusively in the Fremont plant in California. Your car will likely be produced in early 2021 with about a 2 month shipping and delivery time frame. Having said all this, Tesla also makes some cars without a specific customer order and if your order matches one of these they may allocate it to you and surprise you with an early phone call.
I filled my time ordering essential accessories which helped to fill in the time with the 2021 model you won't need! What you might need is CCS2 cable male to female To connect to the free AC chargers, some of them are BYO cable You can find free and paid AC/DC charges on plugshare app Chargenet might be handy to sign up for as well
CCS2 is a DC quick charger cable. I think you mean a Type 2, sometimes referred to as Mennekes male to female cable. We actually need a better name for it than Type 2 and I don’t think IEC 62196 is it.
Considering a type 2. The Warehouse has free charging which is nice but I would need to get a ton of free charging to pay for it.
I would say the Type 2 cable isn't really necessary right away, and might never be for you. It's good for opportune charging in car parks while you shop but tbh, it's not really necessary given the range our cars have. As more and more Hotels/Motels start adding charging options it might become more useful
Nope, the Model 3 is CCS2 so no adapter required. The ChargeNet fob is handy, but you can use your phone to start the charger - assuming there's good cell coverage.*
hah hah yes type 2, it would be pretty hard lugging CCS and DC charger around I have to stop posting in the early hours
I hear that. I see to more after most people are well to be and until past the when the early risers are up.
