Model Year 2022 Refresh M3/MY

[Lindenwood]

2020 M3P 0-60 - 3.2s, quarter mile 11.5s, top speed 162mph
2022 M3P 0-60 - 3.1s (3.18s without roll out), quarter mile 11.5s, top speed 162mph

I think there is no difference.

Was this with the 3L or 5L battery? I have no way to add to the body of knowledge, but the investigating others have done indicates ~5% less power across the board with the 5L battery…

5L is the newest battery?

3L. There are no known 5L M3P cars that have been reported in customers hands yet. Do also bear in mind 5L is a newer battery and Tesla take a while before they get it fully optimised. If the newer battery reduced the performance they would not be able to advertise it with the current acceleration numbers as it would be false advertising.

The 5L is the newer battery which, from the limited available data, seems pretty much worse in every way for the Performance models unless you really like drag racing Camrys with 15% charge on cold mornings.

@Lindenwood That's some real-world competition right there. First one to the coffee drive through when you're so tired you forgot to plug in last night!

I suspect why we haven’t seen any performance models with it yet. I can’t see them releasing it with them until any limitations are worked out.

I

I have this question too, I pick up my M3P next week and the VIN says L for the hairpin windings motor (Variant 3DP) but how do I find out if it’s the more powerful motor?

Congrats Where did u take delivery to get the hairpin windings??

 

[USMC131]

Where do I find the CoC? I have the VIN but can’t see a CoC?

Are you aware of any U.S. M3P getting the 5L Battery ? Or is it only available in other areas for now

 

[Not That M3]

Yeah the tape measure does not lie, and I plan to measure upon delivery to see if I got the lowered suspension on my bill. The ride height should only differ by half the diameter difference of the tires approximately if the same suspension is used. Air pressure and vehicle weight (performance weight 14lbs more than the Long range) also impacts this. If you see only a couple millimetres of difference between the performance and long range, then Tesla is not providing lowered suspension.

18” AeroWheels (235/45R18) = 26.34” [669mm] diameter
19” SportWheels (235/40R19) = 26.42” [671mm] diameter
20” Uberturbines (235/35R20) = 26.50” [673mm] diameter

Did you ever measure after delivery?

Tried to search for it but didn’t find any discussion. Are US 2022 model 3 lr using 82kwh pack?
ABRP seems to differentiate 2022 LR with 2021 82kwh version specifically. Not sure if I’m missing something. Thanks!

If we can trust Wikipedia, the info is as follows:

2020 and earlier: 75 kWh (270 MJ)
2020 November and after: 82 kWh (300 MJ)

 

[travis3000]

All model 3 LR's in USA/Canada built after March 2021 have the 82kWh battery pack.

Thanks, I took delivery in Sydney, Australia in March

 

[James Cole]

So no hairpin for the NA M3s?

Is this motor more powerful at higher speeds?

I can confirm my April 2022 build M3P has the 3D1 motor.

 

[delta0]

What’s the latest on the 5L battery? We have some old data, probably pre optimisation of the power output of the battery. They have coupled it with a more powerful motor in the MYP so they must be aiming to optimise the output to match the new power rating.

 

[James Cole]

Also would like to know if the US will ever get the hairpin motor, and has it been compared to the non-hairpin motor? Is it more powerful?

2022 M3P 0-60 - 3.1s (3.18s without roll out), quarter mile 11.5s, top speed 162mph

I think there is no difference.

I have a 2022 Model 3 Performance that was manufactured on 11/02/2021. I think it was one of the first 2022 Model 3 cars made. It is identical to the last 2021 Model 3 performance cars that were made. This was before they started using the lighter secondary battery and the new chip. I was able to get an 11.43 @ 117.67 mph 1/4 mile with the 20" UberHeavy wheels. My 0-60 mph was 3.23 without rollout subtracted and 3.04 with 1 foot rollout subtracted. I checked and mine has the 3D1 rear motor.

On Dragy someone has a European 2022 Tesla Model 3 Performance with the 3D6 rear motor. They were able to get an 11.36 @ 118.60 1/4 mile with a 3.23(without rollout) and 3.03(with rollout) 0-60 mph time. Almost all of the difference between the 3D1 and 3D6 motors comes above ~90+ mph. The 3D6 motor pulls harder up top.

 

[James Cole]

Interesting thanks MPG…

You guys know when we might get the 3D6 motor in the US?
