    Model 3 Software Update 2018.42.x

    Sweet. So in the UI you enable it via the "Regen: Blackout" setting.

    Model 3 Software Update 2018.42.x

    Old regen was 0.2g's. Anyone have data on the new?

    P3D+ 250 mile range with non-aggressive driving

    Being I'm the original poster, I'm guessing I'm "the guy". My average speed was no where close to 80. I said limit+5. That's 30 in a 25, 40 in a 35, etc. Sure, there were times I hit 80, but overall this was a *very* average drive. In any case, this topic wasn't even about the reduced range, it...

    severe range anxiety

    20ish miles trying to find supercharger in place I hadn't been. Really a non-issue though, way more than enough room for error. Tesla does a decent job at protecting us from dumb mistakes. When was the last time you saw an ICE vehicle tell you to navigate to X location due to lack of range to...

    P3D+ 250 mile range with non-aggressive driving

    The issue has nothing to do with EPA rating. Tesla knows your actual usage, it knows where you're going, and routes you to various superchargers based on EPA data instead of the actual data it knows. It's an opportunity for improvement in future software updates.

    P3D+ 250 mile range with non-aggressive driving

    Good call out. Yes I take full advantage of regen. I use virtually zero breaking. Those big beautiful breaks just sit there lookin pretty.

    P3D+ 250 mile range with non-aggressive driving

    Sure heat plays a small factor. As well as it being in performance mode instead of chill, but very doubtful it'd matter much as it was a smooth ride. Also I did go 65-70 in 65 limit zones. Like I said, limit+5. Never was I speeding. In fact I was being passed by a ton of vehicles. Anyone...

    P3D+ 250 mile range with non-aggressive driving

    Nor was my average anywhere close to that. I said limit+5 (plenty of 35s etc), which is super typical real-world driving. Anyway, my post was only to educate and show there are still improvements to be made in the estimations. I fully expect that I will never hit 310 mile range under any...

    P3D+ 250 mile range with non-aggressive driving

    Plenty of reviews on this car, but not a ton of coverage on P3D and especially for the P3D+ (namely 20" 4S wheels), so thought it might be helpful for those undecided. After an 800-mile trip from AZ to CA and back in 2 days, using 99% autopilot @ limit+5mph (65/70-75/80), I averaged 300...

    Will staggered wheels and stickier tires up 0-60?

    Currently data shows no straight line delta with staggered, grip just isn't the limit due to the linear performance. However there is untapped power, so if that is ever unlocked in the future we could see potential for it. I wouldn't bother right now, the square 4S setup is soo good. I'd be...

    Thinking about upgrading to Performance. Change my mind.

    You'll be happy either way, but at least autopilot can be added later if you go with 3P. I'd only go AWD+Autopilot if you do a ton heavy traffic commuting. I've only had it one day, but the P+ has been a blast. My wife didn't want to like the car (bitter over cost heh), but she changed her tune...

    Model 3 performance as a cop car?

    Not sure it's needed, but not a bad idea. Theoretically could net $20K in savings over 5 yrs due to gas/maintenance, which could bring it more inline with expectations of sub-50K. Overkill, for sure. But I'm all for giving our officers better tools.

    PM3 Order

    Very likely. Delivery rate is already through the roof and the vast majority of newly registered VIN's in the last month are all AWD (includes P's). Tesla appears to finally be hitting their (target) numbers.

    50k miles yr

    More of a Tesla question than a Model 3 Q, since obviously there isn't enough history to go on. That's too bad you didn't order before August 1st, you could have had an excuse to pony up the 15K for Performance which would have given you free unlimited supercharging for life... Could have...

    Dragy GPS Times

    I'm a little surprised you didn't see improvement with the wider backs. I'd be very curious to see this setup on 1/4 mile as that has been where the P seems lacking (P and AWD are only 1s diff on 1/4, which shouldn't be the case).
