Model Y specs updated today. LR 53LBs lighter. P 18lbs lighter

[Suns]

Very interesting change. Wonder when we start seeing this version come through.

( new specs: )

( old specs: )

 

[MatildaModelY]

Wonder when they will start updating specs for 4680s. Range, 0-60, etc. with 4680s I would sure hope it’s more than a 53lb weight savings.

 

[whisperingshad]

more cargo too

Not sure why you would expect much more savings? The battery density isn't crazy different.

 

[garumaru]

Range increased by a whopping 4 miles as well.

 

[davidski]

Could this be for the car currently being sold? The lithium battery must save a few pounds.

 

[Bikeman]

Can't be a battery change (4680's) just yet. Perhaps the global adoption of the megacasts in all the Y's?

more cargo too

Stiffer and stronger car due to the megacasts?

It’s actually the Same cargo space, they just changed the method to measure it.

Does that include the one foot roll out?

Smaller clowns...

Smaller clowns...

They dismantle the clowns to better maximize loading

Why would there be two different weight adjustments for a part change shared between both MYP and MYLR?

Range increased by a whopping 4 miles as well.

The range changed from 326 to 330 around November. It’s not a new change.

This is just the 12V battery, I expect 300-500 lbs off on 4680 structural cars.

 

[Firocity]

Headlights look the same on the spec sheet between MYP and MYLR. Wonder if that means MYLR is getting matrix headlights soon.

Headlights are still different if you look closely on the config screen at the vehicle image when toggling between LR and P

Yes in the configurator they are still different, I was just referring to the spec page toggling between LR and P.

It can't be solely based off a single shared part between the MYLR and MYP. Does not pass a simple deductive reasoning sanity check.

Did it ever change prior? Spec page makes no mention of headlights so I suspect there is still a difference

There are other differences, point is it is not a structural pack. They also pulled some redundant ECU's off cars to save chips, etc.
