Some 2022 Model Ys shipping with MCU3 (AMD Ryzen)

[sevusal]

Any way to tell date of manufacture from VIN?

I placed my reservation on 6/24/2018 and paid the $2500.00 payment on 6/28/2018. I received a VIN ending 026XXX on the 28th (I don't know why nobody ever enters the last 3 digits, but "when in Rome") My question is: Can date of manufacture be determined by the last 6 digits of the VIN...

Yeah but it only says month and year. I think for exact date, you have to ask the SA

I am checking this thread daily, so that I can say congrats to people who got AMD today.

Looks like VINs with 356000 or newer are getting the AMD Ryzen processors. Rumor is, any build date after Jan 6 2022 is getting the AMD and new LI-on battery, possible rear double-paned glass.

Got off the phone with my SA (again, amazing). He confirmed over the phone that my MYP rolled off the line last night (1/11) at 5:50 pm with the Ryzen chip. STOKED.

Awesome news! I have EDD of Jan30-Feb27 EDD and sweating bullets over this.

There are definitely some Intel builds all the way through Jan 8 at least based on reports around here. I think Jan 9 onwards is promising and most likely definitely Jan 11 or so onwards, but sample sizes are still pretty small as there haven't been a ton of deliveries lately.

I'll be the first to tell you mine is 357***, built on January 8th, and the SA told me it comes with Atom.

That's wild. I got told by my SA that my MYP performance was produced at 1/11 at 5:49PM. Fingers crossed it's also Ryzen!

My vin (build date on 1/7) is 355xxx....I'm asking if it comes with intel or AMD now but suspect it'll be Intel (2 other 355xxx users did confirm it was Intel). Will post here with any confirmation.

My sa confirmed today that I will have AMD chip! Build date is 1-4 353XXX
We shall see!

I hope your SA is right.
But, if it is not AMD when you pick up, what is next move?

Mine is 355xxx built on Jan 5. SA confirmed it’s Atom. I’m thinking either refusing the delivery since I still have my other car and waiting for next one, or if they tell me I can’t refuse and order will get cancelled, I’ll be accepting and then placing another order right away. I think I can break even on my MYLR by the time the new car gets delivered

Hello all,

I just spoke with Tesla Service (not my SA) and they were able to track down my Model Y. They informed me that my car has the intel chip. They also stated that although some of their production lines are using the AMD chips they are not 100% transitioning until end of Q2 2022 and AMD chips are few and far between. It sounds like they will continue to become more and more prevalent as time goes on, but until that date it will continue to be a roll of the dice. The AMD chip would have been a nice to have, but I dont plan on delaying my delivery 6-8 months to "guarantee" a car with the AMD chip. I was told a long time ago with Teslas that there is always something new around the corner. If you continue to delay for latest update you will never take delivery. Nothing wrong with waiting if thats what you decide to do, but I for one am too excited to wait that long.

Side note... Honestly, if it wasn't for these forums I probably would have never even thought to check what chip was installed (ignorance is bliss). Good luck everyone and enjoy your cars!

this was my concern. Thanks for sharing although source is still SA so… <shrug>

I kinda see this car like I do my iPhone... whatever version I have will probably be good enough, but if the trade in value is high, then why not upgrade to newer tech? I can't see myself keeping it for more than 2 years, so as nice as it would be to have the AMD, I'll take whatever they give me because I'm gonna replace it anyway.

Tesla did officially state that these changes would not be gradually phased into cars and transitioned by the end of Q2 2022. Until then I think all we have to go on is the word from Service Centers and SA's. It sounds like the only way to guarantee receipt of an AMD chip would be to wait until that transition is complete.

I just sold my model 3 to Carvana in November. The "type of GPU" that was installed was not something they requested or even list on their site. I dont know how much that affects resale value too be honest.

Truthfully I'd be content either way. Not sure what the Ryzen chip is going to improve in terms of user experience other than gaming. I have the Atom in my '21 M3 and never once have I thought anything in the UI felt laggy. I certainly wouldn't cancel my reservation over this, that seems a bit extreme.

It won't if the car is just being traded in since they go by auction values anyway. Even in private sales, the vast majority of people won't know or care.

where did they officially state this?
