Yes! V5C came through yesterday (19th Feb), 3 days after MY collection. Nah, its not possible, you need the reference number from the V5C unfortunately. Tried everything !
When the V5C lands on your doormat, you can assign the new reg number online via the DVLA (Beta). This is instantly assigned, which is pretty cool but you have to put the new plates on your car immediately (and tell your insurance company) before you can drive it on the road again legally.

and click on the green box to assign the new Registration numberAssign New Reg to your Vehicle 7am - 7pm ONLY !
Private (personalised) number plates
Buy a private (personalised) number plate, assign it or transfer it to a vehicle - renew or update your entitlement certificate.
Also, anyone with Admiral car insurance, you can inform them of your new reg online, and it only costs £5.50 (more by phone), new docs appear shortly after to print out your new policy with the revised registration.
Just wish TFL was this easy for applying for an electric vehicle exemption for the CC - takes up to 10 days and my original reg wasn't in their database allegedly. So you still have to pay full rate. Now, I've changed my reg, god knows how long it'll take
I think Richard Symons posted something somewhere.. (Tesla Owners Club I think) to the effect they thought it was ~79kWh from their charging stats.
I had recently received the same delivery date range as you, but it’s still there at the moment. Lets hope everyone like you that has lost it is in the process of getting a firm delivery date. Please keep us posted!
Hmm getting closer. I just need Byorn to get a Q1 2022 from China to range test!

Hmmmm going by this thread link below, it would appear to be 82kWh batteries now installed if we go by your V5C
Model Y changes over time
DISCLAIMER: Sorry if a thread has already been made, but I havent seen one getting updated. I plan on keeping an active change log by editing this post. Right now I'm concentrating on NA cars, but if people have info, I'll add in China and Berlin I'm going to start with my understanding...

So, you're on Gemini's showing max estimated range 325mi ....? (I'm going on the picture of your car in your app)
I'm on inductions, showing max estimated range 321mi
Interesting.... maybe its you thats got the heavy right foot not me ?
Yes I think that's correct, the new Y5LD batteries are 82 kWh although the usable capacity will obviously be lower (probably around 77 kWh). The 'Max Net Power' stat of 378 kW is very interesting. According to an online convertor, this equates to 507 bhp which is a lot more than I have seen it being quoted previously!Hmmmm going by this thread link below, it would appear to be 82kWh batteries now installed if we go by your V5C

Yeah the max net power is interesting. Maybe once we've all bought the acceleration boost, they'll offer us an acceleration boost boost then ?
Also, I think there is possibly some clever software stuff going on in the background to help keep the range within the 10% degradation over the 10 year battery life guarantee.
This is super useful info, thanks so much! Collecting mine in 2 days and with Admiral and have a custom plate. Appreciate the post!Yes!

At least some (e.g. Direct Line) insurance companies have the MYLR listed as 507 bhp - quite interesting to see where they clearly got that figure from.
I think that's about right. The M3P and MYP is estimated at 413kW (554 hp). The 378kW for the MYLR is probably with accel boost comparing performance figures. I would think the insurance companies are covering themselves by using the highest output figure for that particular model.
