2024 Model 3 Performance Announced - Discussion thread post announcement

[15mpg]

Any performance figures for the European cars? I can see the USA ones have run a 10.7s 1/4 mile which is great.

Australian review got 3.16s for 0-100

Australian review got 3.16s for 0-100

That’s not even close to some of the 2.85-2.9 0-60 the Pano tests are getting

Presumably without 1ft deducted? Quickest stock US version from 0-62mph is 3.09s.

Who runs 0-62mph in the US that you’ve seen posted? I haven’t seen a single time posting that!

It can't be pulled from the 1/4 mile dragy data?

 

[milesr3]

Yes, by setting units to metric. You can see the <0.1s difference.

Maybe but I haven’t seen it posted…maybe the Europeans see it posted as 0-62?

all you have to do is look at the leaderboard with units set to metric, and understand that 100kph is 62mph.

My best and worst 0-100 kph run with a US(Panasonic) car.

And here are the metric versions of the higher speed runs.

I see there are a few European ‘24 M3P 0-60 times appearing on the dragy leaderboard in the 3.1s to 3.2s range with 1ft rollout deducted.

This is not faster than it was before

I can make my ‘21 do 0-60 in 3.6 seconds too. Don’t make judgments based on a few bad runs.

 

[milesr3]

There are even worse runs on there, but fair enough, let’s wait for some info on battery SoC and temperature. Coincidentally in the three fastest runs you can see the rate of acceleration tailing off above ~45mph.

Maybe the batteries were also the limiting factor on the old M3P...the new one may have the same bottleneck?

There are other aspects that make the new one a much better car though.

I can say that when I test drove a new LR, which has that GOD AWFUL LG battery it felt significantly faster than my car above 40mph, but it’s possible that this was just an artifact caused by the fact that my car accelerates so damn hard below 40 and that was missing from the new car I was driving.

Maybe I should schedule a test drive today and take my Dragy to see what the new LR does

I got 3.95/4.13 0-60 on a LR.

This is one I did from my test drive a month ago in a LG car here in Aus.

That was at 75% SOC with a cold battery with just a single run.

While the top end speed of the LG is definatly slower, the sub 100kph is a few tenths quicker than the old car for sure.

That’s quicker than my fastest run with a hot battery on 18” wheels in my ‘21. At 95% SoC.

And quicker than my ‘22 at 90% as it came out of the factory on Überturbines
