MYP - Initial Impressions (vs '20 MYLR)

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
OD: 3/9 MYP
EDD: 6/3-6/17 (as of early May)
Assigned VIN: 5/25 (F440)
Picked up: 5/28

Delivery: Seemless transaction. Was in and out in 15 minutes, of which 2 minutes was finding and using the restroom. Keep in mind this is my 2nd MY. First was 2020 MYLR (one of the 1st 1,500 VINs).

Built quality: Unlike the 1st one, build quality was pretty damn solid. Car was a bit dirty (even though they said they "detailed" it), but I didn't really find any issues that'll warrant a SC appt. I might spend more time tomorrow, but pretty surprised so far.

New stuff: It's got everything I was hoping for. 12V lithium ion battery, AMD Ryzen chip, hepa filter / bio-defense mode, and dual-paned windows (front only). It did also come with heated wipers, but I didn't care too much about that since I'm in SoCal. One of my worries was whether I was going to get the summer or all-season tires. Luckily, I did get the Michelin AS tires. Ironically, when I was inspecting the car, I had 2 separate owners come up to me and ask how I got the AS tires. Apparently they also ordered their MYP in March, but they both got the summer tires and were kinda bummed about it. So yah, I got pretty lucky.

Drive: I've only driven like 30-40 miles so far, but I've pretty impressed. You can definitely feel a difference between LR and P in terms of acceleration. Don't get me wrong, the LR was plenty powerful already, but the P is unnecessarily fast. :) Also, when I initially ordered the P, I was tentative and read a few articles about the rougher ride with the P. Well, no concerns one bit. It's pretty much the same, maybe even slightly better than my original LR. The factory tire pressure was all set to 42 psi, so 1st thing I did was lower that to 39 psi when I brought her home.

Overall: Maybe it's all in my head, but I feel like the '22 version is just more solid vs the '20 version. I'm really surprised about the improved build quality. Now is it like an European car? No. But I knew that already. Again, I've only driven this for 30-40 miles today, but it's definitely an upgrade from my first MY.

Hope that helps.

Yea, the 2021 and later cars have much improved build quality. I've read that the 2022s have revised dampers as evidenced by new part numbers making them much more livable. Grats on the MYP and getting the AS4's, that's real lucky given our region. I'm jelly though since our MYP is a 2021, it doesn't have the latest goodies.

I’m making the same purchase. My 2020 LR AWD Y was built in July 2020 but I added the Performance Boost so I’m sure the performance delta won be as great.

Will you can provide some insight in its efficiency and thoughts on living with the 21” tires/wheels. Living in IL I’m preparing to order a 18” tires/wheel package from TSportLine to help protect the tires wheels from potholes and curbing and some of that 27 miles of range back. That is for the real-world overview.

Congrats! Thanks for posting this feedback - really helpful. Did they give any detail why it’s out of sequence or assigned so suddenly? I too received F440 VIN assigned last week when VIN’s were 450+

The robot who answers texts in the Midwest claims I'm getting summer tires even though I'm picking up in MN and live In SD. I sure hope they're wrong. Otherwise, I'll trade ya! 😁

Thanks for sharing. How strict were they about getting there on time. Do they check your appointment time?

Can’t really say too much now since I haven’t had too much time with it, but give me 2-3 weeks and I’ll provide my honest feedbacks. :)

I didn’t really ask about VIN assignment or sequencing. Honestly I don’t think those guys would know anyways. They’re just there to get you in and out as fast as possible.
