Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

[sroy]

Ok I think I figured it out. There is the "568km" range (353mi US model), the "614km range" (EU made in USA "model") and the 640km model. The later is the one with the new battery cells which are either in the works or the newer made in China model or nonexistent...

There is no differences between the 614km model and the 353mi one.

The later is the EPA measurements and the former is the WTLP one. It is the same car. So you do get the "614km" one. It's just not a thing. Since that's the standard used in EU, Tesla advertise a different range in EU than US because they legally can. However, it's the same range. And we know that in real life getting even 353mi from the LR is a stretch.

The 640km is a new thing. (see Long Range M3 - WLTP increased to 614 km from 580 km for the reference)

In other words @TheRFMan was right.

In Spain, today it's being a long day on forums about the increased range from 580 to 614 km. No comments about the 640 km. Yesterday the web showed 580 km. and today 614 km. So people started discussing about... Software update? ....82 kWh battery? ...New measurement test? Well, I also agree with @TheRFMan, I think a new WLTP test was made with some parameters changed. Any way, excited and counting down the days.

If you go to the Tesla website (US), its shows the LR AWD with 353 mile range, it has been this way for a while, I don’t see any bump in range.

The US range is displayed based on EPA standard. The EU models uses WLTP standard which evaluate range in a different manner. It is the same range. 353mi EPA = 614km WLTP.

Then probably a new WLTP tests. Thank you all for your answers. And excuse my english!! Un saludo!!!

I still dont get the WLTP numbers, 614km=380 miles. Has anyone even gotten that much outta their M3LR?? How did they calculate such a high number?

 

[jippy]

04/12 - Placed order for M3LR
04/19 - Submitted pictures for trade in
04/23 - Received trade in value and accepted it

Expected delivery date - June 8-28

My local Tesla centre has advised me to realistically expect the last week of June for delivery because that's when they're expecting M3s to arrive to their location (West coast Canada). End of June is actually ideal for me so it works out really nicely assuming I don't miss a delivery.

You drive slower, I would guess driving at 50-55 mph would get you close.

 

[Mastacater]

Also little update to mine. My SA emailed me today saying we are still looking at middle to end of may on mine, for whatever that's worth lol.

ah right, had to look it up! Yea it makes much more sense Europe can have smaller roads with more speed limits!

I got another shift to the left. Now May 23rd-June 12 from May 30th to June 29. No VIN still.

likewise! Estimated Delivery: May 25 - June 14 from May 26-June 15.
first change in about 10 days.

Dont judge... but funny enough, i dreamt of waking up to a vin that starts with 5yjr only to ACTUALLY wake up to a vin that begins with a you wish buddy....

LR is now possible to get with 82kwh Panasonic battery pack. There is also possible that some will still get 75kwh LG.

Rumor is that there is also new rear motor.

Man, mine just moved from 5/21-6/09 to 6/05-6/25. I guess it's all just part of the process

My delivery date was just pushed from 5/20-6/10 to 6/4-6/24. I feel heartbroken. My plan is unchanged though. If the S begins production before I get my 3, I’ll likely switch. If not, I’m going to really enjoy my model 3 LR for a couple years.

In tesla.com, in Europe, Model 3 cars in stock that claims to have 614km range are the ones with the new wood trims (design MT321), and 580km range cars don't have the wood trim (design MT316).

So, if you look at the source code of a page of a Model 3 with 614km range, you will find the MT321 word, MT316 otherwise.

Please, anyone with the VIN assigned in his/her Tesla account page (or in it's source code) can search for the word "MT316" or "MT321" in such page source code, and then post the VIN last six digits (hiding 2 last digits for example to not completely reveal it). This way, we can know approximately in which VIN they started with the MT321 design.

My delivery date changed today for the first time in 10 days. It was May 24th to June 14th.

It's now May 18th to June 10th. Looking good!!

The range is the same. The only difference os the WLTP rating. It is the same car (trim is new but range is the same)

Are you sure? Any sources?

Are you sure? Any sources?

We went through this on this very thread on this page or the one before. They come from the fremont factory. The us/canada/mexico still displays “353mi” EPA rating. The EU pages displays 614km WLTP rating. It is the same car, just range measured a different way.

check this article for more details.

Here Is What A Comparison Of EPA/WLTP Range Ratings Reveal

The EPA and WLTP range ratings were introduced to help consumers understand an expected average real world range, but there is a lot of confusion instead.
