Is this normal?

I read in the manual somewhere that setting a speed restriction automatically applies Chill Mode.

as above

Is this normal?

Me and the mrs went to test drive the Model Y and we both instantly noticed that the go pedal felt a bit stiff and the acceleration felt quite restricted, almost as if there was a bit of a delay between putting your foot down and the car doing something. Is that normal and it feels weird to us...

You can't set a speed restriction. Search this forum for complaints about not being able to limit the speed.


Edit: Sorry I forgot about Speed Limit Mode. you could limit the speed that way, but you'd need to set a PIN so unlikely to do this accidentally - and it doesn't apply chill mode. Perhaps you're thinking of Valet mode? But again you need to set a PIN, so not easy to do accidentally.

According to the manual (see post above) it sets chill when you set a speed limit. The car may have been set with a speed limit intentionally I suppose.

I stand corrected. You'd still see that it was in chill mode though and OP discounted this.

I’m not so sure, in valet mode it does the same thing but doesn’t show as being in chill mode.

It does in Speed Limit mode.


Also there's a great big honking sign that says its in Speed limit mode.

Yes it’s an odd one.
