'21 MYLR much FASTER than '23 MYP

[Zer0Her0]

Okay so hear me out. We have both as you can see in my signature. Build quality is alright with the MYLR given creaks and rattles but some Post Malone helps drown that out...

But I take my wife's '21 MYLR into work from time to time and I mean it feels so much faster, agile and fun to drive than my '23 MYP. Does the bigger wheels really make that much of a difference or is this something I should look into? I mean it's night and day feeling...

We have a 21 MYP and switch between the 19" Winter set-up and the 21" Uberturbines for the summer. It doesn't feel any faster with either set. Turn in feel is better with the 21's, but that's about it. The MYP is considerably faster 0-60 that the MYLR.

Ensure your MYP is not accidentally in “Chill” driving mode. You want it in Sport if you want full power.

There is no situation where a LR will feel faster than a P if the P is not in chill mode

There was another thread a while back where the poster said their YP felt slower than a loaner 3LR+AB. Looks like Tesla was going to replace the front drive unit but they never updated if that fixed the issue.

21 Model YP slower than M3 w/ AB?

So I recently bought a used 21 MYP, and while it’s quick, I was a bit disappointed by the acceleration. It just didn’t feel as quick as I expected. I had to bring it in to Tesla because the door was groaning loudly when opened, and they gave me a 2018 M3 with AB as a loaner. This thing is...

I have both the YP and 3LR+AB, in a straight line, they feel almost identical. The stated acceleration from 0-60 per tesla are almost identical as well. Once in the twisties, the 3 has all the advantage.

Yes but that thread was saying the 3LR+AB felt significantly faster in a straight line which isn’t true and indicative of a problem with the YP

Maybe you could use the App 'Scan My Tesla' App to compare for each car the instant power delivered to front and rear motors in full accelerarion

Thanks for the responses and input guys. I checked and it's not in Chill mode...I mean the YP doesn't limp by any means but definitely a different breed (lesser) than my MYLR...I love driving the MYLR now...

Wife has confirmed YP feels substantially heavier and not a neck snapper...

 

[E90alex]

Definitely have it checked out. That’s not normal at all.
