If that’s accurate, it’s right around the price. I expected it to be in the price that no one wants to believe as possible.I agree it’s almost farcical at this point but as we well know it’s Elon’s way or the highway. I’m not in the US but I’m hearing rumours of a starting price of $US60K. Would they sell at this price?
I want to order either a Ludicrous or LR ASAP. Get with the program Tesla and announce this already so I can make my mind up. It's almost all leaked anyway, only the price really is the one thing we don't know at this point.
At $60k, if it can run 125mph in the 1/4 mile that would be interesting.I agree it’s almost farcical at this point but as we well know it’s Elon’s way or the highway. I’m not in the US but I’m hearing rumours of a starting price of $US60K. Would they sell at this price?
Elon is letting this thread run past 200 pages before the release announcement.so i guess all hype this week and no official release of model 3 ludicrous model?
If that's the requirement, we can hit that in a couple hours....Elon is letting this thread run past 200 pages before the release announcement.
Maybe April 23?
Come on it's elon, they'd defintiely go for 4/20Elon is letting this thread run past 200 pages before the release announcement.

So the motors are capable of 461kW / 618hp but the battery can only output 415kW / 556hp?
Probably. Also wouldn't be surprised if the respective peaks of the motors happen at different speeds, so you'd never quite hit 461 even if the battery wasn't the issueSo the motors are capable of 461kW / 618hp but the battery can only output 415kW / 556hp?
Would be great if this is true. Curious to see what the 19s look like and how the options would be priced.(235/265R19 Optional)
Ive listed the expected US differences here / US battery pack was already confirmed as BT42 from the option codes:
Interesting. So it’s a bit less efficient as you’d imagine from the wider tyres than the outgoing M3P but wonder what it’ll be on the 19’s. Great news they offer those as having wiped 2 tyres out at the weekend on a pothole at night on the 20’s they just aren’t practical.
You can always have a set of cruising wheels that are 235/40/19 square with ultra efficient tires on them. You wouldn't be able to do maximum 0-60 mph in them but you would be able to get MUCH better highway efficiency especially at slower speeds.Interesting.

Old M3P was a WLTP range of 340 miles and the LR in the pre-highland was around 380 miles I believe. A rated range difference of 40 miles and maybe similar difference in real world.
The difference is much higher now as the Highland LR has a WLTP of 390 on 19’s and 421 on 18’s vs 328 on the M3L so that’s almost 100 miles less though I suspect the 19’s which also are 265 at rear will have a slightly better range.
Be a hard decision, quite a bit more range to give up this time potentially when the lower models go further and the top end now goes slightly less distance.
Yes this could be the way of course as realistically it’ll just be the tyres you’d think affecting the range. Obviously this time does have a different motor from the LR which might be more or less efficient but doubt there’s much in that. Still have to see when it’s up on ordering what the 19’s suggest, they might move the needle enough not to bother.You can always have a set of cruising wheels that are 235/40/19 square with ultra efficient tires on them.

I am definitely going to get a second set of wheels with ultra efficient tires and just switch back to the standard 20” wheels when I go to the track.
Should really compare with the 3L equipped M3P which had 352mi WLTP / 315mi EPA range.Old M3P was a WLTP range of 340 miles
Yeah I guess my wife has a 2023 M3P so she’s on the LG pack already here in UK. I’m generally fine with the range we get on it and the drop was only 40 miles from a previous LR but now it’ll be closer to 100 as the LR now goes further but the M3L is going to go less distance so yes the gap is much larger.Should really compare with the 3L equipped M3P which had 352mi WLTP / 315mi EPA range. It's a significant reduction in efficiency.
