Waiting Room: Refreshed Model X 5/7 seats

[outie]

I am tired of reading all irrelevant posts in the 20k+ replies thread, so I am starting this one that is relevant to us.

I originally ordered Plaid X 7 seaters in June 2021. Last month I got the call to switch to 6 seats Plaid for free because they no longer produce 5/7 variants on Plaid, and the other option was to change to Base/Long Range at current pricing if I needed 7 seats, so that's what I did.

My current EDD is TBD and has been like that for weeks. I know EDD is not important but that's where it stands for me.

Same

Same. Need 7 seats or nothing.

For us its the ability to utilize as much space as possible, so having the bench that folds down is key. If the second row seats actually folded flat we would have probably switched. I am really hoping to take delivery by the end of April as we have a road trip planned in May. Ordered May 2021 with a current EDD of March.
There is so much speculation regarding production issues, and one person will hear something that contradicts someone else’s information. Figure its pointless to call Tesla, so just waiting it out.

Good Morning. I am also a 7 seater order, LR. Never was contacted for anything to switch or not. I don't mind being on the other thread as it is a still a nice hub full of information, whether accurate or inaccurate. FWIW, I have a pretty responsive SA and he said he did hear that they are starting 5/7 seater production soon. And he always admitted that he is providing every info to me that is given to him (which isn't much at all). But I do respect his transparency instead of making up reasons.

When you changed from Plaid to LR, did you have to pay for the current pricing and did it move you to the back of the line (whatever that means)?

I am still watching the other thread in case anyone provides anything useful about 5/7 seaters and share here. Too much irrelevant contents are buried in that thread.

Current pricing, unfortunately. That means I am paying more than what I would've paid if I ordered a LR in the first place. In terms of moving me back of the line, I have no clue. My RN didn't change and my EDD also didn't change from its original Plaid order, namely Feb at the time. It was still Feb after I got the confirmation email about my updated order, but days later it changed to TBD and has been there since.

You should argue. If they have notified you when you was ordering, you price would be $15k less for LR.

They don’t care. The other option given to me was “Cancel the order”.

I ordered 7 seater LR 2/1/2021..
my anniversary is done still not date .. order shows March 2022 as EDD.

I’m in this boat! But let me go check the other waiting room thread to see if I have an update.

Hey, just got back from the other thread. No update. I see there’s no update here too. Let me check the other thread.

Umm, the other thread doesn’t have an update. Anything here? No. I’ll be right back …

 

[outie]

Unfortunately for every 10 pages over there there’s only 1 reply somewhat relevant. Someone posted that their SA mentioned 5/7 seaters production will start soon, like next month, and obviously that should only be taken with a grain of salt. I do check the other threads frequently and if there’s any concrete, relevant info I’ll update here.

Thanks for the heads-up. It looks like all of us are in the same boat...

 

[studioloft]

I really don't like this. Relevant info posted in the other thread still... I just have to add this to the open tabs list :/

 

[honeyfist301]

Pushed to April 2022 this morning.

 

[bayareaever]

Mine just pushed to April also. Ordered 1/31/21.

 

[ChrisOtt]

My 7 seat LR just pushed to May (Canadian order) these might be more accurate now

My august 7 LR still says april. But I guess that will be pushed back by a couple months now

Thanks for the thread. White on black LR 5 seater converted from pre-refresh continues to show TBD. Declined conversion to 6 seater.
Waited 3 years for my 2016 X, won’t be that long.
