Acceleration boost upgrade

[sevusal]

after upgrading to 2022.8.2 this morning, I have an option to purchase “Acceleration Boost” for my MYLR22 model. Does anyone know what this is?
The description says 4.6 to 4.2 sec. That’s only 0.4 sec improvement for $2k!

You had the option before you updated also.
Well worth it. Don’t think twice

Two thousand well spent imo

4.8 to 4.2. That looks small in print, but it's quite a big improvement.

Want to know more? Search "Acceleration Boost". There are probably a few hundred threads discussing it.

thanks folks. I didn't know I had that option all along. somehow it showed up after the recent update. I remember I only had FSD upgrade option before. anyways, did some more research and it looks $2K wroth spending

I made a Prius in the fast lane look like it was standing still this morning. It was a good day!

Nice work - you can also do that on a Segway.

I totally agree…. hey it’s refundable if you aren’t delighted

Actually $2k to get that much of an increase in acceleration is relatively inexpensive. Go price what it would cost most vehicles to get that kind of gain (safely).

 

[after-dark]

Is there a distribution chart of where the gain is felt most ie. 0-20 vs. 60-80 etc

Lol.... "only .4 second improvement", when the car is already under 5.0 to start and intimating that isnt that much....

The Acceleration Boost (AB) upgrade is is only refundable if you request the refund within 48 hours of clicking on the upgrade button (not when Tesla turns on this option for your vehicle.) You can only request, receive a refund for the AB upgrade one time.

I would 100% pay for a Boost on my MYP, from 3.5 to 3.1 or better yet 2.9. take my money Elon.

Uhh...well...clearly, it's not so simple.

HAHAHA! It's a .6 second improvement, not .4

I havent looked at teslas specs for the acceleration boost, I was just going off what they posted. We just sold my wifes X3 and picked up a model Y we ordered in early january last week, but its a model Y P cause I have a model 3P and the difference in price was so small.

If you wanna make your long range like a performance edition...

GHOST UPGRADE

It's almost scary.. You need to have the right motor (980 or 4D1). Here's a video to help you find the number motor. The Ghost doesn't work with the 990 & 780 motors. The update transforms your dual motor into a Performance It adds 150 HP to your car... You'll be able to do 0-60 MPH in 3.2...

AB is terrific. I got it back in May of 2021 immediately after I purchased my Y LR.

 

[Arthur31]

worth every penny. It's more than the 0-60 number.
I have been racing cars for over 20 years and there is no way to get this kind of performance improvement for that amount of money.
