It actually wasn't off topic. The request is for Tesla to add a mode that explicitly heats the battery regardless of what state the car is in. That would allow the Tesla Model 3 to access the car's full potential anytime the driver felt like using it. As of right now you have to do the convoluted process to get it to heat the battery at higher States of Charge.Wow - How quickly that got off from the original topic. Given Tesla has more orders than production - they will be focused on production with the current model with very few tweaks - mostly software.
If you want a drag-strip Tesla - go order a Model S Plaid with the tri motor and/or gut your M3P of all the excess weight to improve the hp to weight ratio. Your M3P regardless will always be significantly slower than a tri-motor Model S Plain - doubt there will be a tri-motor plaid Model 3P ever built. More motors = more power - period. Especially for a production vehicle.
Now, Tesla probably won't add this feature because they can sell as many cars as they want without it. However, it would be really easy for them to add it if they really wanted to.
