[DBPhil]

looks to have just updated ....

 

[DBPhil]

So multi-coat white the standard paint now.
LR option available.
White interior for Performance.

My Tesla contact says it looks like I was the first to add the white after she gave me the heads up that the change was live.

 

[Brendon]

Performance only.

 

[Nathanwhalan]

Still cant get the 19s on a LR

 

[DBPhil]

The short-range Model S and X have disappeared too - with what looks to be some smaller downward pricing adjustments

Same on the New Zealand website

Looks as though the long range is just the previous "non-upgraded performance vehicle". And delivery dates of September instead of August...

 

[DBPhil]

Dave3333, I believe the range may have changed. Wasn't really looking before, but if it's just a Performance excl. upgrade pack then I would assume the range would be the same. Just a thought.

New Long range AWD has NEDC range 620kms and acceleration 4.6secs.
Both old and new Performance options have NEDC range 560kms and acceleration 3.4secs.
But New Long range AWD is same price as old Performance (subject to Pearl White $1400 reduction and FSD $1400 increase).
And new performance just includes the performance pack, and the option for a white interior (subject to Pearl White $1400 reduction and FSD $1400 increase).
Tesla have confirmed to some owners that the FSD increase will not apply if an order is modified.

 

[Candleflame]

do we still get the old price and the "free" AWD unlock?

 

[Techno-phile]

Tesla Range Table - Teslike.com says range for old Performance is the same as LR AWD on 18". Hope so!

I just updated my M3P design online for the white interior - AUD$1,400. I was thinking about delaying deliver based on the black interior only option....not anymore !!! Now that pearl white exterior paint is standard I saved $900 on my original order even though the white interior cost $1,400.

Make sure you own a good pair of sunnies when approaching the car!

I'd go white interior if they offered it on Perf Lite.

I'm worried as is that the car will scrape on my driveway, let alone with 20" tires and lowered.

Perf lite is removed altogether. LR awd or full package.

Yep I’m sure glad I grabbed the P Lite while it was available. Only way to get the same performance now is with an additional $8K more and you will also have to put up with the harsher ride of the 20” tires, less ground clearance and reduced range. The P Lite really was a great option now that you compare it to what the LR that is now priced at the same price.

Yes, I agree. Only downside for me is that I cannot get the option of white interior. I am gonna ask for $2100 off for Pearlwhite though, but it is a good deal anyway.

 

[Vostok]

Still waiting for White Interior on LR... and I’m not gonna blink first.

Ah yep. Have been reading that the motors used are less powerful, but more efficient - therefore longer range. Otherwise seems very similar. Was hoping it would be a bit cheaper though! I will be sticking with my SR+ order...

 

[Techno-phile]

Surely the performance upgrade pack should reduce efficiency because of the 20" wheels. It doesn't make sense that Tesla were offering the same range on Performance with and without the upgrade pack.
