Is it even possible? Personally, I'd gladly shell out $2500 for a sub-3 second blast to 60. Maybe even $3K. Other EVs are getting quicker all the time, and I want to keep up! Or am I dreaming?

[Feature request] Model Y Performance 0-60 in 2.99s? How much $$$$ will you pay?

0-60 in 3.5sec is already scary fast for me lol

wishful thinking.
MY probably needs MS motors and driveline to get there.
then you need better brakes.
then suspension improvement to keep the power to the pavement.
nah, just get a used MS
You are dreaming, basically. Wont happen, especially since that time is faster than the current stated time of a Model 3 performance, and that car is lighter than this one.

It's very likely that all of the other drivetrain components are not up to the task to do 0-60 in less than 3 seconds. Battery, wiring, motor, and all the mechanical bits have to be up to the task in terms of durability. It's quite probably the car was no overengineered to the extent it would need to be to handle this kind of additional power output. In that case, a simple software flash would not be the solution.
They should refresh the Model 3 with Y rear hatch and give hitch.
Also bump power a bit
I want back in the 3 size (or even smaller), if they can make it more practical.buy a MYP then !!They should refresh the Model 3 with Y rear hatch and give hitch.

Main limitation seems to be power delivery from the battery.
The MYLR AB upgrade increases the output of the front motor, I think the reason the MYP doesn't have an AB upgrade option is because available battery power is the limiting factor... if it increased the output of the front motor it would be done at the expense of reducing the output of the rear motor for zero real world gain.
In the current setup, the MYP has a noticeable falloff in performance with each percent lower state of charge, this performance falloff is NOT present in the MYLR, even with the AB upgrade.

I did, after buying a 3P and an X. Size and agilty wise I prefer 3P. But it's a sedan and no hitch for the P. I would much prefer a sized down YP with performance from the 3P or even faster.
It's all relative. After having it for a while it begins to feel normal or even slow. If you've ridden a sports bike (600-1300cc) the MYP still feels slow. I regret not getting the Model S Plaid over the MYP
So what exactly does the Plaid have over the Performance model, that makes it faster and longer range?
