Inventory is at all time high unfortunately, and also they are probably planning for Juniper release. Juniper release would be able to get the existing Model Y (their best seller to upgrade).

Some specific config not available, like M3SR White 18"... my friend waiting for this LOL. Others like M3SR White 19" then was available...

... then his SA/DA damn sleeping sia...

Cause he booked on April... I manage to get referral hehehe.

Buyer makes booking with your referral link. 5000 points I think, then redeem for stuffs.

Safest time to buy is just before tax holiday is over, hence after that with tax price kick in... it will never be cheaper... so wait until then.

Only differences other than the dual motor is, the suede finish on the door (doesn’t matter if you going for white interior) and the speakers which I really enjoyed.

Based on your explanation… SR is a better choice 🤣 no need spend the extra $ solely for the #DuaMotor

confirm kena poisoned by the Dual Motor...

But I think nowadays the test drive is locked to "chill" mode... maybe won't kena poisoned by the Dual Motor since can't test the "standard" mode. Back in Nov'23 when I test drive, it was just speed limited to 130 km/h, still can access "standard" mode. 2 months back I tried the MYLR... locked to "chill" mode. Sigh... this car feels so unresponsive

Dua Motor is addictive... sure you won't be flooring it daily... but it is always there when you need it

I don't even want to get started on the M3P... not gonna test drive too... gonna make me regret further not waiting for M3P.

but personally when I bought mine only had SR and LR... and the LR was so addictive on Standard mode. Plus the sound I'm pretty picky about it, so... LR it is.

If follow the original Model 3... both LR and P has same battery pack.

Not sure if current highland has higher output battery pack, the capacity looked identical though. Both are NMC usable 77.6kW battery packs.

Yes, Performance using NMC. Basically LFP is also battery, will be damaged if left over at 100% for long time just less apparent than NMC. Battery damage is when it has max capacity 100%, or too low charge... so weather NMC or LFP still will kena.. just LFP is less, and LFP has to go to 100% for the calibration to be more accurate. NMC has bigger voltage delta hence no need do so.

Side note, the Tesla battery BMS is smart la. You can set it to charge to just 80%, or even put it so it starts charging to get to 80% at 7am for example. So just reach home and plug in. next morning by the time u set its ready for you. And even better the battery is warm and ready to go.

What Tesla advertises is WLTP, and what is shown in the car is EPA. And there's another based on your driving history Wh/km estimated. So there's different numbers. Mine is a M3LR 18", it shows 550km at 100% (probably less now).

Usually if 550km WLTP, probably 80% is about 440km ish would be ok. but being a performance model being floored a lot I think eventually you get much less I'm guessing the performance is as efficient as the LR, but due to the 20" and wider tires for grip... cannot defy physics mah.

If I'm buying now, I'll probably get the Performance... just for that seat... and those lovely styling!

But the main issue I would have is not the range, but the 127mm ground clearance vs the 137mm of the LR...

M3P roadtax declared 461kW so… 😅

M3LR doesn't even get 490hp at the moment, there's no Acceleration Boost as of now.

M3P is paying for 461kW (as declared in the VOC) which is tak betul either.

This figure declared by Tesla Malaysia, it’s a 461kW motor configuration on the M3P.

Problem here is, Tesla don’t use actual rated kW but using max kW from motor instead.

Yes, current M3LR cannot draw 366kW... probably only with Acceleration Boost and ~90% SoC

Original M3LR gets peak 314kW (without AB) at ~80% battery SoC https://www.reddit.com/r/teslamotors/commen...tate_of_charge/

I'm subscribed to PC, mainly because my kids comes into the car very quickly they turn on the media behind. Most of the time my car tak sempat connect wi-fi yet

on and off I use live sentry to check where I parked my car too and being able not to rely on my hotspot also la.
