My guess is that it means nothing. I will not believe that Tesla, a company that is late with everything would be fixing the part numbers for all weather floor mats into the accessory system 6 months before they start producing the cars with that style and before they even produced the mats.

Model S range and interior update imminent?

Yes, purely guessing here. It might be a date mistake indeed between US <> EU, good guess.
Let's hope that April 9th is actually MI03 and a form of refresh of the vehicles.

I noted this in another thread, but I have not seen anyone update the Model S or Model X Order & Delivery spreadsheet with a Production Start date later than 3/26. This could be just a case of "lack of data," but again...conjecture (that's my disclaimer...hah).

I’d be happy to make a charity bet you don’t know what the word “imminent” actually means.
Posted this last night. A slight change to my new Model S...
It would make more sense - a Tuesday in September is an odd time. Also, I think significant updates have usually occurred in April, like the facelift 2 years ago.
Vent slots might be for a temperature sensor. Given how much warmer it can be near the roof when the sun is hot makes sense to me.
The mats in the EU shop has just been incorrect labeled 2018 instead of 2017. They say September 2017 for 7-seater config. This is when the 7-seater config changed from the Monopost seats in the 2nd row and was replaced with the "bench". This is the reason why the mats changed for the 7-seater and there are different versions.
Can you please put this thread to rest by posting photos of what the new interior will look like?
My concern is that I have my IRO Dash Cam my previous 2017 Model S.
Worried that it defeat the the functionality/ intended purpose of these slots and cause a warranty issue down the road.

No, three hundred (3-0-0). She’s a conservative driver, to be sure, but does not do any granny driving.

My wife laughs when I get behind the wheel and change the profile. The range drops like a rock. She’s not hypermiling like the Florida man who got over 400 miles range (you do remember that?), but she drives conservatively.
Well, if you think about it, hot air rises. Also if you take this cover off, there's mostly nothing behind outside of some wires (that I doubt are overheating all that much).
As such I think you would be fine.
My thought was that the Dashcam would add heat which would rise into the camera cavity. Although the Dashcam also has vent slots.
This is stupid. They don’t even have floor mats out for the model 3. Why on earth would there be mats for a yet unreleased updated model S.
