and here is a photo of a ps4 on the same car. i swapped tires because i much prefer the ps4s because my old 2020 m3p had ps4s.

and for reference here is a shot of my old 2020 m3p with ps4's

not scientific -- just a cat who used a measure tape and took some potato shots

i think the pzeros are the culprit. once i put ps4s back on the height is near the same as the 2020 m3p.


for reference, here is an old shot of my 2020 m3p. see if you can compare it to @civicdrivr 's photo...

I think you could be right about the pzeros.

thanks for the pics

ps - based on your pics I'm so glad I went with the Black on Black -- looks stunning, Can't wait for he to arrive

Just another reason not to like P Zero tires.

the Model 3 is already Tesla's most efficient vehicle (if I recall correctly - that or the latest Model S is).

Fuel Economy indicates that the Model 3 RWD is the most efficient EV in the US for 2022-2023. Second place is a tie between the Model 3 LR AWD and the Lucid Air Grand Touring with 19" wheels.

Does your COC show the actual battery type?
I'm just trying to work out how to identify the battery on my M3P in Australia since we don't get a COC here.

Yes, it does. There are guides on how to check the battery type in this thread, but AFAIK it's mainly post-delivery if you don't have a CoC.

Yes I've had a look at this thread but it's not exactly clear what they are saying? How can I check now that I have the car?

At pickup today the car was charged to 99% and displayed a range of 501km, does this help explain the battery type?

I asked the SA if the lower range is because of the battery type but he said it is because of the AMD Ryzen processor using more resources.

501/0.99*0.62 = 314 miles. Almost the same as the 315 miles EPA range (of a US vehicle with the Panasonic 3L battery) displayed in the car.

@lUtriaNt What size PS4S did you put on? They look a little less stretched on the 9" wide Uberturbines than the PZ4 as best I can tell from that angle.

It makes sense that the Uberturbine stretched tire setup accentuates the wheel gap vs the previous 8.5" wide M3P wheels. The stretch effectively makes the sidewall even shorter. And if the PZ4 are narrower than the PS4S in the same OE 235/35R20 size it's all the worse...

In my experience (with other cars), PS4S tend to run slightly bigger than other tires at the same listed size.

Thank you, so it's pretty certain I have the Panasonic battery.

If you have arms like Mr. Tickle, you could try to photograph your battery label. MASTER THREAD: 2021 Model 3 - Charge data, battery discussion etc

Ooh that looks like a tricky challenge! I might give it a try this weekend?

Is there a breakdown of all the currently in production batteries, and the pros/cons of each?

Is there a breakdown of all the currently in production batteries, and the pros/cons of each?

For the US market:
* RWD -> LFP battery, 60 kWh
* LR, P -> LNCA battery, 82 kWh

Model 3s out of U.S. will have the li-on batteries and faster processor? But not yet stuff like newer hairpin motor and laminated rear windows. If oil pushes above 150 I might just go ahead and put in the order before they start raising prices again.

With current lead times, you might as well put in the order now. Who knows when or even if those updates will get to the NA built cars.

RWD received Feb 17th. I have the 12v Li-on and Ryzen. All I need is the latest update and wiper park heating should be activated.

No one received rear laminated windows. Honestly, I don't hear the difference laminated or not.

Thanks. Is the Tesla website somewhat accurate on delivery dates? Says April for the performance.

 

[weaksquad]

Mine showed March 1-29 when I ordered in January, delivered on March 6

Yes.

no its not. its mostly AI/automatic with little human input. you will get several different date ranges throughout the process.

Honestly, I don't hear the difference laminated or not.

i got my 2022 m3p week ago. prior to that i had a 3/2020 build m3p. it did not have the front laminated glass. i can tell you right now the 2022 with the front laminated glass is MUCH quieter than my 3/2020 without. i dont care about the rear since i dont drive in the rear..

It bounces around from what I can tell. I ordered on 3/5 with a delivery estimate of April, next day EDD was changed to May 20-June 17. From what I have read from others experiences I may get it in April, might be May, might be June or later. So sometimes yes, sometimes no. Helpful I know
