Thats great to hear it has both launch and insane mode! Thanks for verifying.No numbers yet on my refreshed LR. Does feel pretty quick off the line and it doesn't fade in the mid range. It does have insane and launch mode.
I can say it is quick enough to take my ex-boss' 2021 C8 Z51 Vette the times we ran. We somewhat close of the line (S LR was quicker even with him using launch control) and the faster we went the more I puilled him. If he didn't use launch control it was an easy win.
What seemed odd is it sounded like the X was having wheel slippage and the S just hooked and left.
What would have been very interesting is to load up 4 other people in the S and run it next to the X. Or put sandbags to account for the weight differential and see if that is the only reason why it is slower.
I agree, but to play devil's advocate for a moment...I've found the site (Carindigo) to be pretty decent in the past. There are some obvious errors for times such as the ones for
2020 Tesla Model X electric 0-60 and Quarter Mile all Trims
They list 0-60 at 1.9 which is clearly an error.
As for the 1/4 mile time for the 2022 X LR, I find that hard to believe being that quick. Tesla lists the MS LR at 3.1 0-60 and the MX LR at 3.8 (0.7 seconds difference), I don't see how it can pick up about 0.3 seconds over the 1/4 mile to only end up about 0.4 seconds slower in the 1/4 than the MS LR. I could only see this happening if the MX LR is making more power than claimed and it is unleashed after 60 mph or they are throttling the MS LR a bit.
A 0.7 seconds gap to 60 should translate into a bigger gap than about 0.4 seconds at the end of the 1/4.
I've thought through pretty much the same points. I think Tesla doesn't totally unlock the power of any of their vehicles. I think they try and keep some order to the range as Porsche (at least in the past) has careful about. They also might be cautious about warranty issues as well with the new platform.I agree, but to play devil's advocate for a moment...
1) I wouldn't be surprised at all to learn that they're throttling the MS LR a tiny bit in order to widen the gap between LR & Plaid;
2) The 0.7s difference in 0-60 as measured by Tesla may be less accurate than the 1/4 mile testing by a third party (or more accurate, for that matter; either way, we're not looking at four numbers (MS LR & MX LR 0-60 times and 1/4 mile times) from the same tester);
and
3) I would only be a little surprised to learn that MX LR is making more power than claimed. I recall (possibly incorrectly) reading a theory somewhere that max power output for the MS Plaid is limited not by the motors, but by the battery (or the battery's ability to supply power, e.g., the size/length/composition/etc. of the cabling or the power limitations of the inverter). It's beyond my pay grade/education, but if the LR motors ARE the limiting factor for power output (in contrast to the plaid powertrain), perhaps there is some reason why the LR motors are able to open up a bit and increase power output as speed increases.
Again, just to be clear, I don't disagree that the 0.4s gap seems a bit low...I'm just trying to put up reasoning that could explain it.
First 0-60 mph for the LR now measured here. A little closer to quarter mile times...
Has anyone measured 0-60 for 2022 LR X?
Using a reliable system like V-Box or Dragy?teslamotorsclub.com
So slightly faster than a M3P to the 1/4 mile while 0-60 is slower.Where do you see a measurement? No video, slip and on a half charge? I have a vbox and logged a 3.3 and 11.4 fwiw
