Could be this friday, could be after the easter long weekend (rumour), could be in a month?? Anyones guess.
My main want for a Tesla is the acceleration, hers is price / practicality. LR seemed to be sweetspot
So my understanding is there is no MYSR?
Confirmed models are LR RWD and Performance AWD, with possible unconfirmed LR AWD?
I hope the LR AWD is real, because that's the option for me.
Waiting for my M3LR this quarter after giving up waiting for a MY last year. Hopefully I'll flip it for the Y easily enough.

MYSR became known as MY RWD. Thats available in China and Hong Kong
LR AWD hasnt got confirmed pricing yet. May release in a few months after the others due to supply constraints.

Exactly the same as me. Really wished the only options were LR and P at first, would have given her the only option to get the LR. It was hard enough convincing her in the first place.

Nope - The SR has been renamed RWD and is one of the two launch models, the other being Performance
Long Range to be released later

According to the official Oz registration documents the weight of the RWD model Y is too low to be LFP, those could be updated, or I could be wrong!

I thought the Y RWD for China and Hong Kong were all LFPs Only LR and P use performance, similar to the 3.

It could be.
Says the RWD is Tare 1909kg and the LR is 1979kg
I would expect a 62kwh Y with LFP to be a bit heavier the 3 RWD LFP is 1850 or something?

Actually it could be LFP, I'd be surprised if it wasnt, should be lighter if it was 20kwh less NCA?
No. It's clearly stated in the chasing cars article that there while be a standard range RWD and a performance AWD on the initial release, with a third variant on the way (presumably long range AWD).

I'm pretty sure Shanghai has switched to LFP for the RWD. I don't think Shanghai makes a 62kwh NCA.

Was only ever there to protect the budget.
Cars typically had 20-30% import duties.
The threshold was too high to protect the Falcodores

What killed the Falcadores was the commercial vehicle tax write off rules. So many switched to Hilux, Ranger etc for the tax break. It’s why utes are first and second highest selling vehicles in Aus and dual cab utes are popular as they can carry the kids too.
Don‘t tell me the Government policy doesn’t influence car buying patterns.
