For AWD owners wanting a P3D-

[RangerMac]

My P still is greyed out. Where is my half second increase? Where is ludicrous mode?

 

[Quorky]

I can think of a few reasons:
1) the stealth isn't really stealthy for me anymore as this gets you close enough and the unicorn fades a bit
2) track mode if it isn't offered, well not sure how often I'd get to use it
3) I can get the white interior which wasn't offered on the stealth
4) Wondering with the 2020 VINs if insurance companies will eventually catch on and start charging more for the performance version (I know insurance is also based on a number of other factors) vs. regular AWD?

Hopefully someone gets the upgrade and lets us know how the timings are.

So you are saying you would take a slower car (for the same price) just for the option to pay 1000 for a white interior? I guess to each his own, but not the choice I would make. Furthermore, not sure where you stand with your order for the AWD but if you get matched with a Vin for a P3D- and take delivery before year end, you will still qualify for the 1875 federal tax credit. Just some food for thought. You do what suits you best obviously.

Do you have chill, standard and sport or just chill and sport?

Just chill and sport

Bought and testing!

Well just a quick run to the super charger my face got a little flush. Definitely faster. Looking forward to what Dragy says.

This is the only thing I see changed. No run underline or anything. Super stealth AWD+ hah.

What was your most recent Dragy run pre or post most recent 5% update?

 

[thebigbobowski]

The front motor is the main limitation on the AWD, not the rear.

I am hopeful the upgrade is the 20% rumored here (more hopeful for full P but seems unlikely).

A 20% improvement over the published 4.4s 0-60mph gets you to 3.5s, which just happens to be the 0-60s time I found in the source code of the design page. With 1-foot rollout that should be in the low 3s and a clear buy at $2k.

Tougher putt to only pick up 0.5s for that amount.

What/where is this 20% rumor? It’s a long thread! Thanks.

Some folks overseas (UK I think) got a free 20% unlock on their LR AWD cars months back supposedly.

It won't be that much slower and for the few times I'd be really able to open it up it would probably still be okay. The stealth felt special (limited production, mystery reasons why it was there in the first place, etc.) but this way I wouldn't be forced to take the forced upgraded options (e.g an available stealth might have only 19s and not be a color I want) and can customize it the way I want. Tax credit would be a nice bonus, agree on that.

Glad to see Tesla opening this up to everyone.

It’s here!

Here you have it folks. 92%. Faster than advertised.

18s or 19s? Do you have a previous run? How does it feel? 1 foot rollout?

 

[mreynolds767]

Magnus: Thank you! is the difference clearly noticeable to you while driving?

Kudos to you my friend.

That’s what I expected with 1-foot. Still quite a bit slower than P.

How’s the butt dyno? Are we in stupid fast territory yet? Launch more violent?

Any buyers remorse?

 

[TyH2009]

Nice!

That’s in 41 degree weather too? It should be faster with temps in the 70’s-80’s I’d think.

Close to original P though, I believe?

 

[x-cimo]

Do you have a 980 or 990 rear motor?

 

[Knightshade]

Define close?

Original P was 3.5 without rollout, ~3.3 with it.

 

[TwoK4drSi]

Wait...so a 1 foot rollout which everyone measures 1/4 times is 3.5 seconds?

 

[thor_2019]

Supercharging to 90% to warm battery and drivetrain to maximum output. Butt dyno says way faster, a little violent. It's raining here and I only have the all season 18s on. 8 Celsius. 990 in the rear.
