Another data point, 70,000 miles, 2018 AWD LR M3. 268 max range (86%) at 100% charge based on 310 rated.

Thanks @hoang51 for the trip down to complete this comparison and the video work. This was a fun time and very interesting to see the results. Comparing the dyno graphs, you can see where the software limitations start to apply to the M3D.

Yes I was thinking the same thing with software limiting, you can see how it matches the Chill mode runs as well in terms of curve. Guess it takes that 100 extra to get the 1s 0-60 difference for our heavy cars.

Vid of run: DSC_0212.MOV Ignore RPM it wasn't used and isn't relevant. Cars were run to about 110 to 120 when power started to drop off, the bottom x axis is actually speed missing the last zero.

Performance in Blue, Dual motor in Red. lower graph of green and yellow are both cars in chill mode.

Ok, drum roll please........... the data is in, we ran a couple of runs of both the M3D and the M3D Performance and the comparison graphs are attached. Also ran a run of both cars in Chill mode with very minimal deviation between the two. Both cars were close to 90% SOC and dropped to close to...

Had a couple good runs today on both the cars. Will upload data shortly, thanks to all that helped fund about half the cost. And thanks @hoang51 for bringing his car for the comparison.

Both of us have a bit of a drive to the dyno so batt will be warm and there is a supercharger within a few miles, we will both charge to 90% for the runs. Since the runs will be back to back, we won't get to test much lower SOC just where the car is at after each run.

So data is set for this Friday at 1pm. Have my AWD and have another AWD Performance coming to do back to back comparison. Feel free to help cover our cost of the run at: Click here to support Tesla M3D and Performance Dyno Run Comparison organized by Scott Francis

Friday is getting close, can't wait for the runs and the results!

All, Dyno run is rescheduled for 11/30 @ 1pm. @hoang51 has agreed to travel and run his Performance AWD so we can get a same day comparison to my AWD. It looks like total cost will be about $160 for the 2 cars, if you want to help that would be great, but I'll cover whatever difference there...

Sure Reddit would be fine for additional exposure. I'll check with the shop today for other appt times and get back to you. I'll DM you my contact info as well.

Northside of Richmond near I 95 and 64. National Speed. 4022 Glenside Dr, Richmond, VA 23228

I’m happy to reschedule the date to one that works for both of us. Feel free to message me.

Yes A/F comment was an attempt at humor... If you want to bring your performance 3 down to RVA (1 -1.5 hr drive) we can try and do back to back runs with your Performance and my M3D?

Also happy to try and coordinate with a PM3 if anyone is close by.

I found a linked awd dyno in my area and have an apt for next wed around 5pm est. Anyone in the Richmond VA area is welcome to come watch in person, just dm me for info. I plan to upload results shortly afterwards. And some more good news! I was able to get the shop to throw in the air/fuel...

So I see there are some haters, good news, you don’t have to donate. But as others have said just looking to pool our money for collective curiosity. I found a linked awd dyno in my area and have an apt for next wed around 5pm est. Anyone in the Richmond VA area is welcome to come watch in...

I love the EAP in traffic and on the long highway commute, but agree that it still needs some refinement for merge areas and the highway to highway transition seems to vary widely on speed. I find it abruptly slows down to the surprise of anyone following closely. Also on some curves, it does...

All of the touchless car washes are fairly low impact and do an ok job. I have the clear bra on mine and cars before and never had an issue with any lifting or peeling. Most detailers use a power washer on cars and that is typically more powerful than the laser washes. You shouldn't have much...

I'm happy to have my M3D dyno'd and share the results with all here. I can setup a go fund me. think the dyno runs in my area are about $100 for 3 runs. Let me know the interest and i'll do it! Edit: setup go fundme: local shop said they can do it ASAP and interested to see results as well...

AWD areo caps off, drive 140 miles a day with 90% on EAP at 79 mph. weather around 80-90 degrees F 290 Wh/mi lifetime (3,000 miles)
