Firmware 6.2

[LetsGoFast]

I just completed .188 but I can't update the tracker until I get home because I have no idea what my pin is. :tongue:

 

[GetAmped]

After the .188 update my P85D is stating a "more insane" insane mode with a drop in the Zero to 60 from 3.4 seconds to 3.3 seconds, a more responsive accelerator pedal (??) and a high speed passing update supporting up to 155 mph. Guess this is important for all of the race track drivers??, don't see this being a useful update...other then bragging rights.

3.4 to 3.3? It should be 3.2 to 3.1, afaik.

3.4 to 3.3? It should be 3.2 to 3.1, afaik.

3.2 was 0-60 mph, 3.4 was 0-100 kph

Just loaded 2.4.188 on a P85D

Any new details in the release notes? Did they remove the INSANE option?

I installed 2.4.188 this morning.The Sport/Insane toggle is still there.

P85D on 2.4.188 shows that Insane mode is now even more insane!

I think 168 had that as well.

I'm driving to Vegas in about 60 mins so I don't wanna risk it taking longer than expected. I'll install it when I get there

Yes, the "insane is more insane" bit was part of .168. Glad to see SPORT/INSANE selection is still an option!

..why would it not be?

 

[Stoneymonster]

85D Sport Acceleration is now the default. Normal-Sport setting is removed.

Huh, I kind of liked having it optional. Sport mode can be a bit twitchy on the go pedal.

 

[paulwesterberg]

I agree, it was nice to turn it on for a bit, but normal was plenty for everyday commuting.

 

[MarcG]

..why would it not be?

Because the NORMAL/SPORT acceleration toggle was removed in the 85D as part of the .188 release. See the previous page of this thread for screenshots.

Got notification for update. Applying now.

I'll be sure to update the tracker when I know what the version is @dirkhh lol

Also went to .188 - going to update tracker now

 

[AutoExcited]

Has anyone tested the 1/4 mile time since the update to a faster insane mode? Also, at one point, there was talk of a more responsive, faster "mid-range" 60-120 or 60-90, that was in addition to the top end update and the 0-60 update, do we know if that's still coming and if so when? Final question, has anyone tested the faster 0-60 and found it to be in the high 2's or is it just getting down into 3.0 seconds speed now?

 

[Garoq]

Just received the notification. Installing now.

..why would it not be?

Because it makes no sense? There's absolutely no reason to have the toggle. It's purely a PR thing (incredibly successful one must say).

You say this with high confidence. Are there no efficiency differences between Normal and Sport (or between Sport and Insane)?

Yes but after all the hype of having an "Insane" mode would make zero sense as to why they would remove it though. I get the 85D having one mode though.. But the P85D is known for the Insane mode, and taking that away would be a bad business move and also upset some customers I'm sure.

.188 was installed on my P85D today at a service center.
