Seems like those new motors are cheaper to produce and more efficient, however, they suffer from a negative effect called "torque ripple" that a lot of people notice on single motor model 3s under full throttle.

Here's a video that among other things attempts to explain this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XzspO4-T7t4

I'm not in the market for Teslas atm, but after watching this, I think I'd prefer the old smoother motor over the new one.

Front motors will remain induction, as is in the AWD and Performance Model 3's. Only the rear motor will change.

Torque Ripple is only an issue on the single motor Model 3s.
