How good are the Perellis that come on the car?

Welp. Mine didn’t move from July 9-August 13. Ordered April 23. Oh well.

No but there hasn’t really been a true effort.

Welcome to the pushed back Edd club everyone! Sucks. I got pushed back May 23rd. Edd is now July 9-August 13. No VIN. Red/White.

I know what summer tires are, I’ve just never owned a car with summer tires. There is a stark difference.

Never owned a car with summer tires yall. Will I be ok to run them year-round in southeastern coastal NC? I was planning on eating through these perellis this summer then replacing them with Pilot sport all season 4s, but EDD is now late July-August.😭. Temps in the winter here are a low of mid...

No movement here. Still looking at July 9-August 13. 😭 Wish it would move back to the May 23, June 20th… Oh well.

Real. Ordered an hour after it came out and I’ve been pushed back until end of July-August. Red on white. Ridiculous. Wanted to enjoy the summer with this car.

In the same boat as other people. Got pushed back from May 23-June 20th to this :(

Ordered an hour after it came out. Red/white. East coast. Edd may 23 through June 20th. (spoiler! I don’t think it’s coming on the 23rd ;) Got delayed about 3 weeks ago from an earlier edd that I can’t remember. No vin yet which is worrying. Oh well.

Uh oh😭

So I’m now within the delivery window estimate… No vin yet.

Plaid 0-100 is not 3.5-4 seconds lol. 4.2 was quoted for the non-existent roadster. Plaid 0-100 is around 5 seconds. EDIT: I’m wrong. It’s quoted at 4.3 seconds.

Also coming from a 2021 LR owner, highland seems to get its “rated” range at a higher wh/mi, which is good. My car has that rated line at 220wh/mi, which is completely unachievable in most cases. Yours seems to be around the 240wh/mi mark, which is definitely achievable! Thanks new EPA testing!

Overall, I’m not particularly happy with the degradation. As an aspiring engineer, it’s something I just am going to think about and notice. I’ve always kept my car in % mode as the miles is completely useless. I’m going to unfortunately have to baby the performance I have on order as I don’t...

267 miles, 86 %. Charged the car to 100% today and it said 318 miles. Again, this number has fluctuated for me in the past slightly so I’m not confused as to why it’s off by a bit. Further, a percent is actually quite a large “window” to be in. 267 at the bottom of 86% vs the top of 86% can...

Did the energy screen calculation. Got 69.23 KWh. Worse than I would want, but not terrible.

Thank yall so much for the encouragement. The way I learned to do battery degradation was from (I think) the YouTuber Bjorn who does the classic 100 to 0 like I did (admittedly with some fancy equipment). The miles number at 100 percent fluctuates (as is normal) so I am reluctant to rule trust...

Never done the energy screen method. This is from driving 100% to 0. I will do this too and report back. If the degradation is truly this high, that would be really disappointing. I have a new performance 3 on order but I am keeping this LR as well. I’m definitely going to baby the pack in the...

Drove past 0, but would never drive until the car stops moving. There are not enough chargers around for that.

It was 90 when they recommended that. Immediately switched to 80 when they changed their recommendation.

This is not the right way to calculate degradation. You have to actually drive the car 100% to zero percent (you could also just use 50% of the battery and double it, but this is less accurate) and see how many kWh you pulled. My car (the one discussed above with extreme degradation) still says...

I guess it’s just bad luck. Who knows. The only thing that could possibly explain it is that I don’t have a garage and park outside. It’s coastal North Carolina so it’s not extreme or anything. It sucks but oh well. Hopefully it stops declining more. The weird thing is at some point, would it...

You do not have 78.8 KWh of actual usable capacity. In the absolute best case when the car was brand new you had around 75 KWh. Further, you have to take into account degradation. For example: My car is a 2021 LR 3. It has the very slightly smaller battery than yours, usable capacity when new...

Exactly. I bought a long range. My car should not have equivalent to standard-range range after just 3 years of regular use. And to the point of above 80%, yes I am absolutely willing to use it, but 80% is what is “recommended” (it used to be 90%, who knows what happened there). Charging over...

They are realizing that hard-coding actually works in some scenarios. Now that they can no longer hard-code chuck's turn, they have to actually train a car that is "smart" enough to complete it the right way. In a scenario like this, the latter is the much more difficult method for producing...

A bit of a rant, a bit of a question, and a bit of discussion. Tesla is in denial about battery degradation. Just the other day, on Jay Leno discussing the new model 3, Lars (the head vehicle engineer) completely dismissed Jay's genuine question about battery degradation. He stated something to...

The key word here is HW4. I think it has infrared cameras on the side rearward facing ones. My HW3 Model 3 continuously thinks one of those cameras is blocked or blinded.

Please come out today. It’s 4.20 after all.

Main problems with 12.3.4 from an original 10.2 tester(this is on the highway and these problems have been here for a while, so yes, this isn’t really V12, but hear me out) 1. FSD follows ridiculously far on the highway. In heavy traffic doing around 60 mph in the left lane, you can’t leave a...

Never mind. It seems as if that was the financial report.

Didn’t we just have an awful earnings call? Or was that something different?

There is so much out already why don’t they just freaking release it? If the are worried that people won’t get their cars for a bit that is dumb - it hasn’t stopped them in the past.

By the looks of it on X, Chuck's left turn seems to be yet another fail. It doesn't even use the median at all.

I sure hope so. I love it on my current car and don’t know if I need the full on performance.

Does anyone else find the follow distance FSD uses on the highway make it essentially unusable during busy times? Average has an insane follow distance. In moderate (fast moving) traffic here in NC, it is expected that you follow quite closely to the car ahead to keep traffic flowing. FSD...

Oh no guys I had the update last night and it was downloading overnight, but it is now disappeared from my car

While this was clearly said in jest, it’s probably actually true.

Happy to report that I finally got it! Elon loves me!

Yup.

Come one Elon give it to me please.

Gates never worked for me except 11.4.9 (really roughly but at least it stopped). Looking forward to trying 12 when I get it.

Very much agree. I don’t care nearly as much about top speed as I do acceleration boost. Only reason to have higher top speed in the US is pure bragging rights. In Germany it’s actually useful/needed. Acceleration boost you can actually feel on a daily basis.

Yeah lol. Can you get the speed back if you put some decent performance tires on there? Also to note, they removed acceleration boost as well. Why would they do this? Really disappointed and makes me not really want to upgrade my current LR with acceleration boost to this new LR. Lower top...

Well this is disappointing. Especially when I want to buy now but the performance/ludicrous won’t be out for a while. I definitely don’t want a slower car.

Summary - nobody’s getting V12 for a while. Go on about your lives and check in in a week or so. A stupid decision by Tesla to release the most significant update in FSD history to a random selection of people has ruined it for the rest of us.

Never mind. Just found it. Also read an interesting comment on the video. Of ALL the versions to release first to the small OG tester group (chuck, dirty Tesla, AI driver, etc.) this was the version to do so. This is by far the most significant change in the build, and they (seemingly randomly...

Anyone have a link to the parking lot crash?

It's such BS that they took away the USS so early. It's been forever since they did this and people are still getting cars without basic summon. It's crazy frankly.

Does the highland LR have acceleration boost in the US? I don’t want to “upgrade” to a slower car from my LR with acceleration boost.
