I don't think 0-60 in 2.6 seconds is realistic. Not that I would pass on such an upgrade, but 0-60 in 2.9 seconds sounds more realistic with the Model 3's battery.
Yeah but the problem is it has to be a full price or close to full price difference. People would be furious if they upgrade AWD to P cars for like 2k when we paid 9k more (granted we also got wheels/brakes etc.) And new P cars buyers might buy AWD and hope for a cheap upgrade.I agree with what @MagnusMako said. A lot of LR AWD user would pay for a performance upgrade to bring their LR AWD to the P level.
I thought we are talking about the Model 3 here? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm sure they could pick a price that makes sense all around.
Bundling exists for a reason, and it's literally to force you to spend more money. If you have 2 features, say the package of both is 10k. Buyer one values feature 1 at 6k, but feature 2 at 4k. Buyer 2 values feature 2 at 6k but feature 1 at 4k. Bundling both at 10k brings in more money than selling them separately at 5k.Lack of brakes, wheels, lowered suspension and track mode should create some buffer, especially track mode in particular. I think the proper way would be meet in the middle on both price and performance. So a 60 time of 3.8/3.9 at ~$6k would seem like an adequate compromise if Tesla is so set on keeping separation. They could also consider making track mode a separate buy. To me all these software-related things would have made sense as separate purchase options from the get go for the AWD version so people don't have to pay $11k for more things than they necessarily want. And it wouldn't really slow the production process down because of the fact it's all software.
In the end the P3D- cost ~$6000 more than the same-hardware LR AWD did... with the 2 differences being the 0-60 times and the (alleged) existence of TM for the P... so sell the 0-60 for 4k and track mode for 2k, or both for 6k, and nobody should be able to be mad about anything, and it still protects sales for those who think the 20s/red calipers have value on the current version of the P.
(I think technically the top speed is slightly different too? don't care enough to check or even think about which bundle it should be included in)
Given it's all just software differences though it costs Tesla literally nothing besides the time to update their ordering/update system, so the $ is almost 100% pure profit no mater how many/few takers they get.
^This. Originally the P cost 11k more did not include the PUP pkg which was 5k. Now they include it and it is still 11k. So really only about 6k difference from the AWD.
Tesla would be revolutionary if they do the a la carte model for everything.
I want black driver seat, white passenger seat please. /s
If Tesla wanted more money, they wouldn't need to do it by providing a new feature that just happens to be the one you want. They just wouldn't have discounted their top models by as much...

P3D- was $6k difference from AWD after the refund, other than that, they are the same car. How about 6k ?Yeah but the problem is it has to be a full price or close to full price difference.

Not going to happen with the PM motors in the rear, they are maxed. Tesla destroyed many of them in testing to get the max power out of them. They can sell P upgrades on almost all the AWD 3 cars and make a fortune for even $3-4K, that is feasible. A simple software click but no way worth moth than that. The AWD option was $4K at one time and it included an extra motor!
