Is performance boost still available for for Model 3 AWD [ Yes ]

[GenoM3P]

Our dual motor model y offers a performance upgrade via software for $2k. I'm getting ready to order a model 3. Does the dual motor long range non-performance also offer a performance upgrade bump for $2k? I'd order a performance model, but it will cost well over $55k, which is the alleged cut-off for the $7,500 tax credit.

Thanks!

Yes (it was offered for model 3 before the model Y even existed, and is still available).

Great. Thank you.

I took delivery of my 3LR late last month.

Bough the acceleration boost last week from my phone.

Car went from very quick to making it seem like everyone is standing still. Very perceptible for what should be only a marginal boost.

Very cool. I suggest you get it If you enjoy strong acceleration. It’s one of the cheapest, fastest, and least risky horsepower boosts you’ll find for any vehicle per horsepower.

Car does not feel any less controllable either. I can still putter around like an old man, but then the 30-60mph blast is just plain silly fun now.

Curious does buying the boost replace the drive mode or add an additional performance mode option? would be nice to have 3 drive modes after the update.

The tax credit is dead for Tesla's. Unless something has changed.

Nope, still the same two options...

Is performance boost available for the SR+ version? Would love those batteries with some extra acceleration...

No, it just replaces the top-most one, but I agree it would have been nice to be able to turn it on and off and have all three modes available.

Boost replaces standard with sport. Chill mode stays the same.

I need track mode can't wait until that's released for cars with the acceleration boost.

No, but there's a 3rd party mod that basically tells an SR+ it's really a RWD LR and improves performance if you don't mind 3rd party modding

NOTE: only works on SR+ models with a 980 rear motor and without LFP batteries.

Thank you! Went with the LR version.

I hope so that would justify the $2k price for boost a little more. Even in snow it would be nice to have a little more control over the front/rear bias. Not just hope that the auto setting kicks in in time.
