judging from the sound, it should have a subwoofer somewhere.

USA MY RWD has soft limited LR battery!
- Thread starter bzobzo
- Start date
More like 300 miles for an apples to apples figure. If Tesla is claiming 260 miles from 60kWh, that is about 230kWh/mile. 69.6kWh/.230 = 303. This reflects the approximately 4% greater efficiency of the RWD which can be seen in the EPA testing.

I took delivery of MY RWD yesterday. The windows sticker says "Microprocessor controlled Lithium ION battery". Does that mean its a LR battery?
That description could describe any EV lithium ion battery (NCA, NMC, LFP, etc.).

Right. Since it said Microprocessor controlled, I was tempted to think it could mean SW limited.
If that’s really the case, and it comes with premium audio that makes this model a lot more appealing.
I’m still not entirely sure though, as I’ve seen multiple Reddit posts reporting they only get 32A
It's possible, but 48A is shown right on the screen in the car: 2023 Model Y RWD vin assignment
Perhaps those reports are from owners of Shanghai built MY RWDs that are sold outside the US, as those do use the LFP batteries that charge at 32A
Edit: that poster at Reddit appears to be from Canada which gets the Shanghai LFP RWD, as they posted a Canadian Tesla link: 2023 Model Y RWD onboard charger is limited to 32 amps (same for Model 3 RWD)

Any EV battery has computer control to regulate charging and discharging.

No, there’s no way to draw that conclusion based on that info. Long Range battery is a lithium ion battery. The LFP battery used in other markets and the 3 RWD is a lithium ion battery. The low voltage battery that runs the “12v” system is a lithium ion battery.
(the window sticker is almost certainly referring to the low voltage system)
New to the chat here. I’ve been following a lot of these threads for some time now leading up to taking delivery of my new RWD Y Fremont build on 12/13. To confirm things that were already stated - it can charge at 48A on my wall connector at home and pulled over 200kw at the supercharger last night. They told me my car was equipped with an LG E3 M50F battery when I took delivery. Anyone have any idea what this points to?

Interesting. So it might not be a software locked Y LR battery but a software locked 3 LR battery 
That kind of goes along with the posts saying the nominal capacity was ~78.8 kW

Any idea who told you this? The service guy or the sales guy? Only a service guy would know that level of detail. And it indeed points to a M3 LR battery pack.
if this is the same battery pack in M3 LR, why won't MY RWD lose $7500 tax credit as M3 LR?

They could be using the same trick they did with the Model 3 RWD where they averaged the mineral content across the lineup to get it to qualify.

It will. Come Jan 1st and we will know unless they have changed the battery pack again.

It’s not “overly optimistic”, as it’s been audited by the EPA. It’s just not a highway range number. It’s the number for the EPA Combined Cycle test.
What's up with Tesla's range numbers?
No, this is not another "dieselgate".

I did some calculation of my MY RWD battery capacity based on the Energy app data. At 77% battery, it showed a projected range of 239 miles based on the average of 223 Wh/mi.
At 100% battery, the range would be 310 miles.
223 * 310 = 69.216 kWh.
Any thoughts?

How Tesla Bent IRA Rules To Get Full $7,500 Tax Credit for Model 3 RWD
Tesla now lists all Model 3 variants eligible for the full $7,500 IRA tax credit, although the RWD base version is made with Chinese LFP cells, and here's why
