But that doesn't tell the whole story...
That initial Performance accelleration power dump helps you with initial overtaking accelleration. It goes like a stabbed rat.
Getting a cars length ahead immediately IS AN OVERTAKE.
Every time, it's a faster car... especially from a standing start to get onto roundabouts, traffic light lane merging, crossing junctions, merging from Give Way markers, slip roads, urban to National Speed Limit changes... etc
Doesn't matter if a LR can catch up... I'm already ahead !
You have to remember in the UK, the National Speed Limit is 70mph... the Model 3 Performance dominates this speed range

I don’t deny that, just stating what I’ve seen. The fact is though 90%+ of the time you can only accelerate as fast as the car in front of you away from any junction, lights etc. £10k is a heavy price to pay for that less than 10% imo, I’d rather keep my fillings intact in my LR which is more than fast enough for the real world & keep the £10k in my bank account for what is mainly a software change
