Looks like it won't fit as the Tesla Shop is now calling out a "Smooth" & "Beaded" Frunk.

Returned my smooth basin mat today, as my delivered 9/4 3P has the beaded basin.

- Removal of SR+/Reintroduction of LR RWD as base model
This is based on the fact that the planned standard range model Y has been cancelled due to, according to Elon, unacceptably low range @ < 250mi. He mentioned that 300mi is the standard now and with the upcoming release of a long range rwd model for Model Y and the reintroduction of the LR RWD Model 3 in China, I believe they will move towards removing SR+ or making it an off-menu option.Please, i'm close to put an order on a LR, an info like that will make me stop the order.
In the article there's no mention of such a thing, where this come from?
Removal of SR+ is possible. In the last quarterly call, Elon dropped a hint about the minimum range for an EV should be 300 miles. This routine of increasing range across a lineup has occurred for years with the Model S and could occur here too. If you're about to order, I'd wait for battery day at this point, it's two weeks away.Please, i'm close to put an order on a LR, an info like that will make me stop the order.

So for the heck of it, I kicked on the heat from the app and the car was making an awful lot of noise for just a resistance heater. Can anyone confirm, is this what the Tesla heat pump sounds like?
A little short on details and proof, but...“A source familiar with the matter told Tesmanian exclusively that several Model 3s with a heat pump and octovalve are already in Tilburg. All cars were produced at the Fremont factory.”
If true, it means that they are capable of producing them for a while (shipping from fremont to Tilburg must take a couple of weeks at least)
Each of these upgrades in marginal for most people compared to the early improvements where Tesla owners would stop at campgrounds to charge at high power, because there wasn't such a large supercharger network. I think the minor changes now are just that, minor. I wouldn't worry about it and just enjoy the great car you have. It's easy for the top 1% of cars to compete against each other... but the reality is they're still very far ahead of others.Not gonna lie I'm feeling a bit of FOMO for having a Model 3 without the fancy heat pump, and more importantly, any upgrades to deal with cabin noise.
But at the same time, I wouldn't want Tesla to hold back any upgrades and go with the old yearly upgrade system. Hearing various upgrades and improvements every few months is undoubtedly enjoyable in its own way.

And finally - who knows? The first batch of heat pumps in the Model 3 will have their own quirks. Consider yourself lucky to have a more matured design.
