Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room

[Maybe22]

Is it just me or those taillights really don’t look that different! The X still has the bar across the back into the lights. I would say the new vs old taillights are almost impossible to discern… What does everyone else think?

Agreed — no one but someone on this thread with ever know this diff

They’re specifically, in writing, holding it for you for a week? Last I heard you had three days to get your #%*^ in order or they would move to the next person.

I’m curious about this too. June order and we have a cruise coming up in June. With my luck, I’m dreading that they’re going to say it’s available when we’re in the middle of an ocean. I’ll swim if I have to.

Why only 314 miles at 100%? Even with 22" wheels it should be 332.

Plaid 100% is 311 with 22's, the range went down from initial order

someone on facebook Model X owners group posted a picture with an X in transport with the new talilights, new charger port door, and new (old) Plaid badge. No confirmation of headlights.

I don't think the model X in taiwan had matrix headlights but the S did. So perhaps matrix might just be on S? The matrix looks like projector vs old lights

There were no pictures to confirm the X got the new lights but people at the event claimed that the X has new light too… A picture would have been the definitive answer…

[Charge port] Looks like the old one

Anyone know if the refresh Model X supports CCS?

What is the superiority of the new matrix headlights vs the old reflector headlights, this was probably discussed in-depth some 100 pages back that I missed. I have a 2022 MY which was manufactured in late December 2021 that I missed the boat on with the new headlights. If we’re talking only brightness, I have a 5 minute drive into my neighborhood that is quite dark and I find the non matrix headlights on my Y hella bright, and gets even more bright when the auto high beams switch on periodically. So I find myself in a bit of a head scratcher moment when folks are waiting for the new headlight when all this time I thought the current headlights are the best things ever! Lol

matrix headlights functionality hasnt been turned on yet. But they are really cool. You can drive with high beams on and it will shut off around oncoming cars or if a car is in front of you. It will also shine its light around curves

It doesn't have the port but there is an official Tesla CCS adapter released in south korea that will work when it comes here

Plaid 100% is 311 with 22's, the range went down from initial order

Yea, but this isn't a Plaid. It's an LR.

 

[sorka]

Wait 314 miles at 100% thats odd its supposed to be 330 miles with 22's and 348 with 20's at 100%

332 actually but yea, this can't be right.

 

[sorka]

I believe it adjusts based on recent actual mileage realized... so in the winter, for example, the car will clearly get less than EPA and so the estimated miles should be lower...

It better not. It's a federal requirement to display RATED range which is not effected by your driving style. I asked this question of the refresh in the S forum and was assured multiple times that the refresh S is still displaying RATED range.

I've never posted on here but I had an anxiety attack last night thinking I actually had a VIN, let alone an EDD. Only to wake up and find out that I have nothing but a T... B... D... No July no nothing. I ordered December of 2020... Yes 2020!

I'm about 82,000 lower than you (RN114231xxx) and since i'm 5 seat I don't have a chance of seeing my car (IMHO). We can only hang in there.

I was wondering this too as his 100% charged mileage seemed really low. Do you have 22” wheels Stro?

Even if he did, it would be 332 rather than 351.

 

[sorka]

Mine is now 316 vs 314 last time. Interesting. Could it be dynamic based on driving mode + outside factors such as weather like others have said? I will 100% ask about this during my appointment at the SC. But maybe someone else with a new MX can chime in?

Your battery is showing 5% degradation already. Rated range is strictly a function of the existing battery capacity(not effected by driving style or history) and your rated wh / mile.

For your car, that's 286 wh / mile. So 95 / 0.286 = 332. Someone needs to use SMT or TM-SPY asap to look at the BMS nominal usable capacity to make sure Tesla isn't hiding true capacity.

Tesla Model X 20" vs 22" wheel range impact: bigger isn't better
Interesting.

But that would just effect actual range, not RATED range. Think of rated range as the number of gallons you have in a fixed size tank.

 

[sorka]

There is so much debate about this, that the other sections on this board all agree to just switch it to percentage because it will never be correct. Its just an estimate

But then you'll never see true degradation which is probably what Tesla wants as it will allow the consumer access to precise data to let them know when to trigger a claim on the 70% warranty.

Just heard back from my SA, she said my X was built last week, (didn't give a specific date, just "Week of 2/22") and that the ETA is now a day earlier, hoping it shows up sooner. From what I've seen online, I'm only expecting the tail light update and not the headlights. Fingers crossed for the headlight update though.

 

[sorka]

See but that’s the problem… you will think you have 85 miles but you don’t really. It’s just an estimate based on your current driving history, conditions, etc…. Percentage on the other hand is accurately depicting what percentage of your battery is remaining. You just have to determine what percentage you are comfortable arriving at the supercharger with and then plan accordingly.

Which means nothing if you don't know the current kwh capacity of your battery which EPA rated range tells you.

 

[Jmax1010]

Has anyone taken delivery of an X with the new charge port on here? If so what is your build date

 

[sorka]

I love the miles vs percentage debate...each side thinks the other side is absolutely stupid.

That's why you need BOTH % and miles. I frequently switched back and forth because each told me something different.

 

[sorka]

Maybe its just me ?...... But your screen shot of charge shows your set limit at 316mi. & not fully charged. According to green indicator bar you have a way to go to get to a full charge .......

Nope. That number is the charge limit, not the current charge.
