Transcript: Drive Tesla Canada is reporting a delivery delay for Tesla's Model S Dual Motor All-Wheel Drive and Model Y Performance in the United States. The delay, requested by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), is due to potential issues with the vehicles' range figures. Last month, Tesla lowered the range ratings for the Model S, Model X, and Model Y, attributing the change to new EPA testing methods and "comfort and functionality improvements" drawing more energy. These improvements are part of an "efficiency package," similar to the one introduced with the Model 3 refresh in 2021. The exact details of the efficiency package changes remain undisclosed, but they significantly impact the vehicles' range. A reader reported their Model S delivery was canceled and pushed back to February 28, now further delayed to March 7 at the earliest. The EPA's request for a retest of these specific trims has caused the delivery pause. There has been no word on a similar delay in Canada.
