Do you know which battery that is?Picked my car up yesterday and just about managed to photograph my battery sticker. Part number looks like 1660112-09-G?

I believe it is the Panasonic 3L. One of the UK agents I chatted to before delivery could see 'BT42' in the option codes. which is the 3L.Do you know which battery that is?
It will be one of the permissible variants and versions for the M3P in table 2.Will it be the 2022 refresh? Will it include the changes on the first post on the images?

None from Q1 have had the rear door laminated glass or LG 5L battery. @eivissa updated the battery wiki over on the German site a few days ago. I have not seen any explanation for why the 3L battery has continued to be used in the M3P. I could speculate that the LG 5L was chosen for economic reasons, and therefore Tesla would ordinarily be quick to switch to using it. Maybe they still have stock of the 3L to deplete. Maybe there is another reason. It's pure speculation though.
It’s going to look like a truck either way. The stock setup isn’t great looks wise. I couldn’t stand it and decided to lower. That said it may not be something that bothers you. The tesla website pictures are very misleading on the wheels gap issue. Good news is if it does bother you a 1 inch drop is only 750 all in.The "lowered" suspension on the Performance is barely lower than the SR or LR. I took delivery of a 2022 Performance last Thursday and it's got quite a bit of wheel gap, but I believe it's partly due to the wheels having a relatively tame offset and the stretched tires.

What is coming when is unknown but so far there have been no LG M50 (5L) batteries, M3 Perf M50 hairpin wound DU variant (in combination with the 5L) or rear door laminated glass.so my car will not have the changes on this picture:
Impossible to say. Some would say there will always be something better tomorrow and you should buy what is available and enjoy it today.Would it be wiser then to wait a little bit ?
Different, rather than better (or worse). The 5L is reputed to have more power at lower states of charge (SoC) but less peak power than the 3L. The 3L has greater capacity.Shouldn't the LG 5L Battery be better?
I called Tesla today and they told me all deliveries in 2022 M3P have the LG battery with all the new changes etcWhat is coming when is unknown but so far there have been no LG M50 (5L) batteries, M3 Perf M50 hairpin wound DU variant (in combination with the 5L) or rear door laminated glass.

To be honest, I got my knickers in a twist over thinking that only the 5L and cat.3 3D6 DU would be acceptable in 2022. But now I understand better that the M3P power output is far more dependent upon the output of the battery than the motor net power ratings.
We’ve already seen 2022 deliveries with 3L (Panasonic). At least so far with the March deliveries. I have a May M3P coming so will be checking what battery that is.I called Tesla today and they told me all deliveries in 2022 M3P have the LG battery with all the new changes etc
Are the UK cars getting delivered from the China ?We’ve already seen 2022 deliveries with 3L (Panasonic). At least so far with the March deliveries. I have a May M3P coming so will be checking what battery that is.
Yes they areAre the UK cars getting delivered from the China ?
Oh lol weird...i asked him 3 times, he insisted all cars who delivered on 2022 from China they have the new updates, new cpu and LG batteryYes they are
Going by milesr3’s car earlier which is a March 22 car he got a BT42 (3L) battery. The CoC should have the battery details.Oh lol weird...i asked him 3 times, he insisted all cars who delivered on 2022 from China they have the new updates, new cpu and LG battery
how can you check what battery the car has?
The longer you wait the more you will be paying as the latest price increase is pretty substantial.so my car will not have the changes on this picture:
right?
Would it be wiser then to wait a little bit ? Shouldn't the LG 5L Battery be better?
They were probably talking about the '12v' Li-Ion battery. Every 2022 car from China has this and every agent you talk to is primed to tell you this.Oh lol weird...i asked him 3 times, he insisted all cars who delivered on 2022 from China they have the new updates, new cpu and LG battery
how can you check what battery the car has?
