Hello
I’m having trouble getting answers to some (seemingly) basic questions regarding the model Y. Trying to decide between the RWD and AWD atm.
1) Is the list of differences between a 2024 RWD and AWD the following: Battery capacity, Charge Speed, Drivetrain/acceleration, Audio system, and parcel shelf. Is there anything else I’m missing? One Tesla sales rep told me power folding and heated side mirrors were also exclusive to AWD but I don’t seem to find that anywhere.
2) is the battery for the 2024 a software locked LR battery? I know there was discussion on this forum but I don’t see any definitive answers
3) it seems from YouTube tests that the Berlin RWD only has a 10% (rather than 20% like Tesla claims) shorter range from the AWD and shows a high level of efficiency. Does the same apply to the US model? Or is that due to weight savings from LFP specifically
4) where is the US RWD and AWD produced? Do both models come with Matrix headlights?
5) This last one is just looking for advice. The difference between RWD and AWD for me would be about 5k. I’m cost conscious so I’d rather not spend that money if I don’t have to. At the same time because I am getting free supercharging and plan to charge away from home (no charging at my condo) I feel like I might miss the extra range and charging speed. Then again, if the difference is minimal in light of the charge curve and higher efficiency I’d probably save the money.
Thanks in advance
