Agreed, but I think that the P3D is still faster. After the latest power increases, people are reporting sub 3 second 0-60. Tesla has to do something to keep the P3D competitive and worth the price difference.I'm happy for the LR AWD owners but have to say that as a Performance Model 3 owner, I'm bittersweet about it. I bought the performance model only for the better acceleration and didn't care about the bigger wheels, brakes or spoilers. We were also told the motors were different...
Now that the Dual Motor AWD accelerates as much at a Performance Model 3, there will be little selling points for people to buy a Performance instead of a LR AWD... which will ultimately hurt resale value of the Performance Model 3.
I'm hoping that Tesla will provide an update at some point that will increase the acceleration for the Performance Model, hopefully under 3 seconds...
Meanwhile, enjoy your need car
Thanks for your feedback. I got my 2019 LR AWD a few months ago. I wanted a Stealth, but there were none available and I didn't think anymore were going to be made (according to the Tesla SA's), so I settled. I knew then that I would have buyers remorse if any more Stealth's hit the lots, and they did, and then I did. This will help ease that remorse somewhat, although for the same $2k money, the performance isn't quite the same as the Stealth.
Since I have absolutely no valid reason whatsoever for needing that performance anyway, it is 100% fueled by that inner child that grins every time I am on an open road and stomp the Go pedal. It is also hella fun when my wife is in the car, and without warning I stomp the pedal and watch her head hit the headrest.
Now that we've essentially kissed free power upgrades goodbye (Merry Christmas), I hope this does not start a bad trend where Tesla starts charging for other enhancements.
You mean power equivalency but without the brakes & wheels but with track mode?Because it's a PERFORMANCE MODEL.
I think it got us from stock original 4.5 seconds down to 4.2 (verified by many testers). So I'd say that we are moving from 4.2 to 3.9 (or better) with this boost.
It's a good geriatric drink!?OK, guys in my age rcategory (70 and better), What is your opinion on this "Boost"?
Genuine question, not trying to be snarky, but, you didn't know that the battery would degrade over time when you bought it?
Perhaps, but the verbiage describing the difference is clearly not a mistake, while copying and pasting a value from one cell to another incorrectly is clearly easy to do. Also note that in 2018 both EPA documents showed that the AWD And Performance were different.
The verbiage is pretty clear in implication: the Performance has a more powerful rear motor (and always has). Whether that is due to a software limit or hardware capability difference I have no idea.
If I could thumbs up twice on this I would. Our family has a bolt and a model 3. Bubkiss on updates for the bolt....even got a nice letter from Chevy a while back trying to convince me to trade in the bolt....for a pickupyou should be thankful for all the OTA updates-you'll realize this if you won Chevy Bolt or Nissan Leaf.
On iOS go into the App Store, search for Tesla, tap to go the the app details. The button should say upgrade instead of open.
I saw a video posted of someone doing a 0-60 after the boost upgrade. With me using my ultra scientific stopwatch held next to the computer screen, I timed it four times and each time got right around 3.6 seconds.With the recent 5% power improvement, a 4.4 0-60 became 4.18 seconds. Any insight if "Acceleration Boost" takes the vehicle from 4.18 seconds down to 3.9 seconds (not worth $2,000 IMO), or if it is really now 4.18 down to 3.7 seconds (95% of the stated 3.9 in the boost offer)?
