September 2021 Order Delivery Dates
- Thread starter scoobybri
- Start date
I see conflicting Tesla theories.. Few days ago, there was note going around that Elon is requesting Tesla folks to work overtime and get deliveries for the end of quarter, then few days later there is another note from Elon saying he is not focusing on EOQ rush!!!!! :O
Not sure what Elon has in mind but all we can do is wait. I am also sure that Tesla is seeing lot of cars being put on hold this quarter due to EV Tax credit which might happen end of December and thats the reason all our December deliveries are pushed to Jan? I am sure all of us will appreciate Jan deliveries and get an $8k but on the other hand all of us would like to get the car now in December and enjoy the holiday season with it after such a long wait. Initially I wanted the EV credit but now I would be happy either way.

4680 won’t be until towards the end of 2022.
I thought AUS production was going to be all 4680. You’re saying no production in AUS until late ‘22?

Austin will start by getting batteries from same source as Fremont. Battery cell area in Austin not yet online. Austin should start shipping production vehicles early ‘22.
Yeah I agree. Whatever it is, it is.
Although, Some people pay good money for a roller coaster with this many ups and downs.
Also, This also could all just be a randomized algorithm changing dates to psychologically condition us all to be ecstatic when our cars actually arrives. Lol
I don't believe anyone outside of Tesla knows the true story on when we can actually take delivery of a Model Y with the 4680 cells. The Tesla Kato Rd. facility in Fremont has been producing 4680 batteries for the past few months, but not in massive quantities that the gigafactories will be capable of producing in the future. At the company’s Q3 2021 earnings call in early October, Tesla senior VP Drew Baglino said that first vehicles with 4680 cells would be delivered in early 2022. It appears that given the Austin Model Y production rate will start off slow then ramp up during the course of 2022, it may be possible the supply of batteries from the Kato Rd. plant will be sufficient to meet the quantities needed for the Austin built Model Y's until their own battery production begins sometime during 2022.
Sorry, I thought my details would show up under my name. Guess I haven’t figured out how to do that yet.

Got a nasty text from Tesla
Action Needed - We still haven't received your selected delivery appointment, please select your Model Y delivery appointment at tesla.com/schedule/RNxxxxxxx
We understand timing is important to you. If you do not select a delivery appointment by this afternoon, this vehicle will move on to the next customer.

Picking up in 5 hours! Any good check lists?

We have almost the same order date, and my EDD moved forward from 12/24 - 12/31 to 12/15 - 31. The window got wider and earlier. I can't think of a reason why, other than they expect delays from people ahead of me. But that doesn't track with others in CA getting their dates pushed back. Puzzling.

Is a few, someone here once recommended teslaprep/model_y_checklist.md at master · mykeln/teslaprep Go ahead and google Telsa Model Y delivery checklist, will be a few.
Looks like a very detailed list! will put in a good use today!
Yeah I know what you mean. I was all ready for picking up my car last week of December. A friend of mine ordered mid August and his EDD is Jan mid to Feb 31. I wondered how come mine is before him but then he has a different configuration. But now mine moved in the same time frame.
You never know tomorrow it moves in December. lol.

Picked up my MYLR yesterday. Here's my experience:
- The staff is not interested in helping you. Alway rushed to their workstations even though the place was empty.
- The mechanic didn't really check the car. A few short excuses about meeting the standards event though I found 3 items that required an appointment with the SC.
- Bring a good check list. Even though you might not be able to verify every single item it's still helpful.
Overall, we are thrilled with the car. It's a rapidly evolving technology with a lot of room for improvement but totally worth it even at this stage!

woke up - finally! - to changed dates. I'm now December 15th-31st. Of course, this bring a whole new set of questions about delaying until January 1st, etc. If Tesla aren't pushing for end of quarter figures, they may be amenable to this? I guess we'll see. I'll now wait for the VIN and the dates narrowing further. But this suddenly feels close!!
