Acceleration Boost Purchased

I use scanmytesla for performance tests, which some say gives the same answers as draggy. I can hit ~4.1 seconds 0-60 above 50% or so. I ran a 4.51 at 28% charge. So, even at a 28% charge, it'll beat a non-boosted MY at 100% charge. These numbers are without rollout, so subtract 0.2 seconds to compare with other cars (including the MYP).View attachment 650427View attachment 650428

Thanks for the feedback. 4.51 sec at 28% is interesting. Mine definitely "feels" much slower, like 5-6 sec at 28%. But me without haivng any way of measuring it, it's subjective.

I completely understand. I tested closer to 15% once. It felt so slow, I expected a 8 or 9 second 0-60. It ran a 6.1. Being used to a 4.1 0-60, 6 feels really slow.

Too me lower SOC impacts the performance as speed increases more than 0-60. For example of you are going 125km/hr and 40% charge the car feels much slower when accelerating. At low speeds (0-100km)and 40% charge the impact is lessoned greatly.

Definitely true. At full charge, I get full torque until near 55 MPH or so. At that point, it is power limited (~475 HP). With a low charge, and especially with a cold battery, the reduced power at highway speeds is very noticeable. You still get near full torque until the power limit is hit. This can be around 40 MPH for a low cold battery. It was worse a few updates ago.

At 20%, I was down to 209 HP at highway speeds in February- that felt very sluggish.

So I purchased the Acceleration boost and it seems to be the fastest above 25mph at accelerating. like man it really throws you in the seat but doing 0-60 it feels like there holding back power until you hit 30 then there is the violent acceleration.
