Can I ask why?

He thinks that they won’t ship with Airbags or seatbelts.

I saw that tweet. Is there any advantage/disadvantage to this? I thought the rhd's were coming from California.

Or could these simply be for the Japanese market which is right next to China!!

2020 Model 3 SR+, last 1,200km stats.

Varied conditions, temps & roads. Actually kept some of the motorway journeys to 110km/h, to aid with range. Much of those kms were during the cold snap too, but it was driven relatively conservatively. Probably 30% motorway.

20kWh/100km & getting 47kWhs odd, approx., from the battery.

The WLTP of 410km is mad & even Elon's rated range of 370km is waaaaay off.
Sure, it'll do 400km+ in summer, at 60km/h, but the old Model 3 SR+ is a 200km range winter car, in my experience.

Nothing wrong with that, it is what it is............just informational :pac:.

Summary: paint very good, outside build / fit / panel gaps some terrible, inside well built, very good

Has the paint improved I thought it was a constant complaint

unkel

Have a look, the video isn't that long. Summary: paint is good. Far better than he has seen on any Tesla before

As for the panel gaps, that really isn't all that hard (or expensive) to get perfect. Great video around on YT where Bob Lutz (arguably one of the top 10 automotive giants of all time) explains how they got from terrible to near perfect on GM cars

How do you tell the difference? Is it down to the range advertised?

J-W

That and the interior trim is updated with the extra wood on the doors

Boscoirl

Seems to have gone back to the older version for me??

Was showing the extra range now it’s not. Strange. Tried a fresh browser.

"Custom order" won't even open for me now.

Keep your secrets Tesla

Does the MIC SR+ have the heat pump yet ?

Ya .My understanding is all fremont and shanghai model delivered post 2020 have it .
The stitching is gone on the MIC steering wheel causing rumors of heated steering wheel

Yes, but it was a fremont build. The first batch of 2021 MIC LHD SR+ models did not have one.

That's brilliant, Limerick to Dublin, and back, without stopping or needing to charge.
I'm in :pac:.

Still saying delivery February if ordered now, no updates for order from December.

Yep, just keep her under 90 and you’ll be grand.
