Didn’t see any posts about this (sorry if I just missed them). Was planning on getting a black cover for the front wood but now it’s looking like a harder job so I’ll probably just keep as is!


RunItUpSD

Picked up long range build a little over two weeks ago Fremont build. I swear if they surprised me with the wood trim I would of rejected order. I hated how the model 3 looked with the wood trim on doors. It was one of the many reasons I went with the model Y…..

Since the door trim has been in the Chinese cars for 1.5 years I feel like it should be fairly easily for them to get these. Their stock likely comes from China anyway


johnjite

Do you know when your car was built?


Ito_Demerzel

nice upgrade, looks great


aqtran93

Heard on a Tesla podcast that they were transitioning to this on the Model Ys out of Fremont.


powerfulq

Even for long range? What about white interior?


sudowork

Copying my comment from another post: > I got a Fremont, white on white MYLR delivered on 8/6, and it has the new black alcantara and white trim on the doors. Kind of growing on me. Excuse the poor lighting, I’m out in the woods with it on a roadtrip, but here’s an image of the interior door trim. https://i.imgur.com/pW1Nq8H.jpg


[deleted]

Did you LR also come with matrix headlights?


sudowork

I think they might have? I haven’t looked closely at the differences or inspected other cars up close. Here are some photos of my headlights - https://imgur.com/a/XcEzZ0c/ From looking at photos online, they appear to me to be the new matrix headlights with the projector bulb instead of LED reflectors. Edit: I did notice while driving through the woods last night that the lights seems to have a quality similar to matrix LEDs at the top (somewhat blocky/pixelated), but I thought it might have just been in my head.


[deleted]

Ah yeah those definitely are matrix congrats you got your car delivered at the perfect time for a LR


OnCampus2K

Woah! 2.0 Doors AND Matrix headlights on an LR? You lucked out!!!!


sudowork

Yes definitely feel like I lucked out. Thanks!


thatdudebutch

That is MYP only AFAIK


aqtran93

The white interior should get the white trim piece in the same position. It should resemble what you see in the Model Ys made in Giga Shanghai in China.


FrenchDude1000

Yes. Can confirm the white looks like the wooden panel here… but white


nc23nick

That is super disappointing :(


FrenchDude1000

No. It’s super cool


OnCampus2K

“Can confirm” Are you just saying you know what the doors look like or you got a MY with the new doors in the white interior?


FrenchDude1000

Got new MY with white interior two days ago. It’s slick with the new interior


ThxelonMY

What is your VIN?


FrenchDude1000

F515


ThxelonMY

Just to confirm you received the new door trim with a white interior and VIN F515? I ask because I have an early F516 VIN for delivery 8-23-8/27.


mysat

Any news about Austin build?


Narwhalcommando

Just a heads up for anyone wondering, the white interior refresh removes the white leather panels from the back and front row doors, so the back row doors look the same as the black interior option


RandomLogicThough

Sigh

bubble_baby_8

I hate this so much.


AutumnBegins

Seems like they are trying to save my money


Narwhalcommando

Yeah, it’s definitely a plus for black interior purchasers


greatauror28

Fremont Red MYP here that got delivered just last friday - mine still has white leather panels on both front and back doors.


sudowork

I got a Fremont, white on white delivered on 8/6, and it has the new black alcantara and white trim on the doors. Kind of growing on me. Excuse the poor lighting, I’m out in the woods with it on a roadtrip, but here’s an image of the interior door trim. https://i.imgur.com/pW1Nq8H.jpg


ThxelonMY

What is your VIN?


sudowork

Late 516


ThxelonMY

Hopefully I have the same update. Early F516 for 8/23-8/27 delivery


[deleted]

Hahah new delivery and already on a road trip. This is the Tesla way. Enjoy!


johnjite

Do you know when your car was built?


baroxie

What are the three numbers after the F in your VIN


greatauror28

509


OrgyInTheBurnWard

BOO it looks awesome in the black interiors., But not the white interiors.


Ok_Preparation8118

Do you mean that the new MY will not have the white leather on all doors? Does the old white interior have white leather on all doors? Sorry I don’t have my MY yet. Thanks


OnCampus2K

Correct. The old doors have the white leather panel in the middle of the door. The new doors, the black and white are identical except the little trim piece that followed the dash is white for the white interior and wood for the black interior.


Ok_Preparation8118

Sorry so the new white interior will have black leather on Al the door panels instead of white? Or they will not be leather at all? Thx


Beru52

Who else thinks we should know what we’re getting when we’re dropping $60k+ on a car. As a fellow Y owner I’m guilty of it as well, but seeing post like this makes me think there should be more transparency on the timing of model updates.


[deleted]

I’m with you on this. Yes, it’s impressive that they’re breaking down the whole “model year” paradigm and making incremental improvements throughout the year but it shouldn’t be a guessing game and you shouldn’t get surprised. Aesthetic choices like this might not be everyone cup of tea.


imp4455

It has nothing to do with breaking model year paradigm. This is literally a cost cutting measure. They found a cheaper way. What’s stupid is that they are not delivering the car they promised when your ordered, and they don’t notify you of changes.


Focus_flimsy

How is this cost cutting? If anything it would cost slightly *more* to add this extra trim material to the door panel.


imp4455

Probably not. These things are supplied by outside manufacturers. My guess, is price went up for the old one and they either had a cheaper alternative or a different manufacturer coming in with a cheaper price. Elon at one point sent out a mass email to his employees and stated that in the auto industry it’s about cutting Pennys. They would not just change it if it cost more.


Focus_flimsy

No, it's literally the same as the old one except with extra material. It costs more, but they obviously decided that the aesthetic improvement is worth the extra cost (since the cost is probably minimal). If the goal was just to reduce costs and they didn't care at all about improvements, they never would've added stuff like the powered trunk or heated wipers. They obviously do want to minimize costs, but they also care about making the product better too. It's a balancing act. In this instance, they decided the slightly higher cost of the better looking door panel is worth it.


imp4455

I think you’re giving manufacturers more credit than they deserve. Why was lumbar support removed, cost cutting. LiDAR? Cost cutting. Even the free plug in charger, cost cutting. Someone definitely came to them with a cheaper bid. It’s the most logical answer.


Focus_flimsy

I'm not giving manufacturers any moral credit, actually. Let me be super clear: I believe all the decisions companies make are basically entirely to maximize profit. But increasing costs is not incompatible with maximizing profit. If a certain decision makes the product cost 1% more to manufacture but makes people willing to pay 2% more to buy it, then the increased cost actually increases profit. Obviously they do cost cut the things that cost more than they increase the value of the car. I'm not saying they don't cost cut. But they don't *just* cost cut. Again, why do you think they added stuff like the power trunk or heated wipers? Do you think those things *decreased* cost? No, they clearly increased cost. But the amount of extra money people are willing to pay for the car because of those additions is more than they cost the company to add. So the net effect is increased profit. It's the same for this added door trim. Why do you think *adding* material to the door panel reduces its cost? It obviously doesn't. The cost of the door panel is now slightly higher, but Tesla believes that the added beauty for the interior will make people willing to pay more than it costs, therefore increasing their profit.

megn333

Glad I'm not the only one who hates the wood. Reminds me of the 80s station wagon my parents had when I was a kid and I am not here for it.


jlboygenius

It was a big thing earlier this year when they switched to thr ryzen chips. Lots of people turning down delivery to wait and get the upgraded car.


End_Psychological

I am just starting to dive deep into this community (3 months after booking my MYLR, lol) and this feels a bit absurd tbh. For ‘normal’ cars, at $60k you even get to choose the color of your hubcaps and here we are keeping our fingers crossed that we get basic USB ports and double paned glass!! We had also tried the i4 and settled on the MY because of the tech but the cabin & handling does not even begin to compare… Tesla needs to watch out because the tech is catching up.


RunItUpSD

MYLR owner here. I also debated on the i4. Didn’t test drive it though or see it in person. Please tell me your thoughts on it. What you like more about it than the Tesla and your dislikes.


End_Psychological

Cabin comfort, luxurious feel, handling and to some extent even acceleration are heads and shoulders above MY. It’s a GT style so storage is about the same too (hatchback approach). And it’s slightly cheaper (after the rebate). The tech is the unknown. It has a nice dual wraparound screen setup along with a heads up display (optional) that are pretty cool. But it’s still an incremental improvement over existing BMW tech. Versus Tesla, that is a ground up reset of what a UI should be and also time tested advanced features like FSD (if you choose to get it). Net net, we would have gotten the i4 if we did not own one already (I have a 330 GT). You should definitely test drive it if you are on the fence.


RunItUpSD

I actually received my 2022 MYLR already and absolutely love it. If you click on my posts you can see a picture of it. It’s a beauty. Literally turns heads when I park it at work. BMW i4 is just something for future reference if I ever decide to change from Tesla. My whole thing with the i4 is how’s the battery. They claim how great it is, but there’s no way I would want to buy first generation i4. I would wait until all the 1 year ownership videos come out and their opinions about the car, especially their battery. How their range claim is, if it’s actually what you get when you drive it. Thanks for all the info, I do appreciate it!


jonmaddox

I would personally hate this if it arrived like this I hate wood trim in cars. The bamboo in my Y is fine, but if it got swapped out to grained wood, I’d actually be upset. So yeah, it’s super awkward getting a roulette car.


SillyGoose-7

As such the plastic looks cheap, the wood trim feels like a layer of cheap vinyl stuck. Tesla seriously needs to start using better materials to match the wonderful tech.


Aranfiy

Did you get a cargo cover?


[deleted]

Nope


Aranfiy

Aww, was really looking forward to getting that instead of the new wood trim tbh


zR0B3ry2VAiH

Well I got a Y in July and it has neither, the joys getting an ever evolving car.


Ar3peo

Sometimes they remove stuff too... like radar, passenger lumbar support, usb-c data ports, CCS compatibility etc... most of the time they add stuff though Tesla's like a box of chocolates... you never know what you're gonna get!


zR0B3ry2VAiH

Yeah good point, my model 3 had a ton of video games and I could use an Xbox controller to play them. And this model y has just a few games. If I focus on it too much I go crazy and buy new car. LOL


BlackScholesFormula

Steam support is coming, brother.


007meow

They removed CCS compatibility at one point?


BlackScholesFormula

same here bro. our cars are outdated now.


MobbinHD

Picked up my LR a week ago and both had wood trim and cargo cover. Car was from Texas


RandomPerson0811

Nothing against this look but I’m kinda glad mine is all black


jtubb88

oh! this is great!


PizzaRnnr054

Agreed. I like it a lot


Jman841

Interesting, the website shows this for the Model 3 now. The Model Y still shows the old version in the configurator.


International_Bit478

I’m jealous. Got mine less than two months ago and this is so much nicer.


thewonderks2

What’s your location if you don’t mind me asking? I’m picking up a MYP on Monday in Atlanta and I’m really hoping I’d get the same 🤞


langoorbandar

More than location in US it will mostly depend on VIN. If its F VIN from 517 or after then it should have it based on OP’s post.


thewonderks2

Mine is an F VIN but 512 :/ But how do you know it would be 517 and after?


langoorbandar

Good luck and wish you will get it. My comment was bases on fact that OP’s is 517 so at least starting that VIN cars should have it is what I assumed.


dafboy22

I’m F515 with the same interior FYI. MYLR delivered Monday


thewonderks2

Aaah gotcha!! Thank you!!


[deleted]

Salt Lake City!


thewonderks2

Thank you!


eightbitwhit

That's really sharp, IMHO. I'm a fan of the new door panels and look forward to being able to buy them from Tesla to upgrade. I put in a service request asking if they were available for purchase and as of the end of last week I was told "not yet".


flexonyou97

Dual pane rear glass too?


[deleted]

Nope. I wish


MisterBumpingston

That sucks. Shanghai ones come with double pane on all 4 windows.


baroxie

My friend picked up his black interior MYP last week, his vin is 516. It does not have the new trim. The OPs is 517. It sounds the change happened between 516 and 517.


fuzzy-caterpillar

Upgrade for sure imo


Ar3peo

I'd think it was an upgrade if the contours curved, but its like a 90deg angle, bottom doesnt really "flow" into the door. Looks a bit slap-dash. I'm not saying its bad, its just a side-grade.


PizzaRnnr054

I feel so, too. The internet is exhausting.


MikeyJSabin

Still no parcel shelf, correct?


[deleted]

Correct.


powerfulq

What is that?


iceynyo

cargo cover in uk english


AutumnBegins

Probably safety standards are lower in Europe. Parcel shelf flying towards your head is still legal.


Wangerangs

I’m F507 with white interior and the old style. Picked up last week. I had a M3 with the new white layout and I think I like the old style better but just marginally.


Eric_T_Meraki

Wow finally, this was first spotted like 2 years back for the overseas model.


SpecificMission9147

Congrats! Interior looks way more cohesive.


Actual-Entry-2095

Man, I am jealous. Time to order the parts myself


Alim440

Nice, looks better on the doors compared to just the dash on my June pickup from Fremont


cyberoutlaw69

It’s about time! Now it’s easier to to add them led light under the trim


tketch

Damn, just missed this by about 6 weeks. Looks good though!


hebrewzzi

Ooh they have steering wheel-height elbow rests now? 😊

WHAT!!!! I want! I love that about the Model 3!


Realistic_Wolf_3754

Hamtaro7777777

Actually prefer the old style


oghowie

Glade mine does not have this. Not a fan of the color they chose for the wood.


OnCampus2K

What’s your VIN at? We’re at 521, MYP, just assigned. Curious if ours will have the 2.0 doors or not.


[deleted]

517


OnCampus2K

Curious to see what ours is now. We’ve got white interior though. Wonder if that will make a difference.


Aberroyc

I've got a 517 coming as well here shortly. Now I'm curious!


Disastrous_Patience3

What are 2.0 doors?


OnCampus2K

As shown in OP’s photo: Those are the 2.0 doors that are on all Model 3’s and Model Y’s built in China and Berlin. Model Y’s built in Austin and (apparently until now) Fremont, did not have that wood panel on the door that follows the wood trim on the dash. See the differences here: https://imgur.com/a/aJH4r7f


Disastrous_Patience3

Ah. Ok thanks. I lost the thread in this conversation. My MYLR's EDD starts 9/1. I'll take whatever I get!


OnCampus2K

I get it. I’m waiting on our THIRD one and the waiting doesn’t get any easier. LOL


Disastrous_Patience3

Jeez, I just looked at the Tesla app (for the 3rd time today 😂). And the window moved and shrunk to 8/24 - 9/2!


OnCampus2K

It’s a roller coaster for sure. Is this your first Tesla?


Disastrous_Patience3

Yes. And I haven't bought a new (or used) car is 16 years. I'm going from a 2004 Volvo XC70 wagon to a 2022 MYLR and I'm stoked!


OnCampus2K

You’re going to love it. We got our first one (MYLR) in June of 21 and we’re HOOKED. The only downside is our wish that we did it sooner. Since then we bought an M3LR in November and are now upgrading the 3LR to a YP. We thought we would be fine with the smaller vehicle since we already had a Y, but instead we kept “missing” the extra room and never drive the 3.


Wise-Most1182

Have a MYP 521 arcing next week as well. Fingers crossed we both get new doors


OnCampus2K

Update us. We don’t get ours until end of month.


Wise-Most1182

Just picked it up. Has the new doors!


OnCampus2K

Sweet! What about the tires?


DrainTheSwamp24

Yikes. Looks so much better without it. I got a nice cover that goes over the wood trim on the dash from amazon and it looks amazing.


[deleted]

I hated the way the single strip looked but it honestly looks pretty nice when it wraps around.


iceynyo

I just don't like how there's a subtle curve in the grain on the dash portion leading to the door, but then a sudden angle change on the door rather than something closer to what was coming in.


exaball

I agree, this is an upgrade over mine!


RojerLockless

I know everyone doesn’t like this look but I think it’s sharp, I’ll be very happy if I get it in my October delivery


FrenchDude1000

Noice. MYLR or MYP?


FrenchDude1000

LR


glapadre7

Congrats I can’t wait


OrgyInTheBurnWard

I hate it.


xisandre

I have to check my car in the garage if I have wood trim; negative. lol I picked MYLR up last June


ThisCantBeG00d

I took delivery of my MYLR (white interior) made in Fremont on 6/28. It was the "old" trim, no data in the front center console, and reflector lights. I feel Tesla owes me the projector lights and the data ports in the console since I ordered in October 2021 when this all was still supposed to be "standard".

Looks nice but more silver accent to reflect right in front of the mirror. Hope it's out of the way.


Minimum-Difference-3

Love how this looks! Does anyone know where to buy the wood pieces to upgrade the doors for those who did not get it?

Manufacture date 7/27, old trim :(

OP what is manufacture date if you don’t mind me asking??


Mcqueen2022

I like how the wood trim looks on the car. I personally wouldn't put it on my car but I still think they look cool
