I bought my
Insane 2015
P85D+ before
Ludicrous was offered as an upgrade (and is no longer available). Drove it
Insane for 2.5 years then upgraded it to
Ludicrous in January 2018 right after the
Ludicrous upgrade offer expired. My
P85D+ was probably the last
Ludicrous upgrade Tesla installed.
SIGNIFICANT difference in acceleration with the
Ludicrous upgrade vs.
Insane.
Insane is great 0 to ~ 30 mph then
Insane acceleration fades compared to
Ludicrous which continues to pull HARD to ~ 60 mph.
Ludicrous also maintains its power at lower SoC (State of Charge) while
Insane really needs to be 80% or even 90% to get full power.
I later replaced my original HEAVY 21"
Turbine "square" wheels and Continental ContiSportContact tires with much lighter and stronger 21"
Arachnid "staggered" wheels and Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires which definitely feel faster and handle better too. The "staggered"
Arachnids and super sticky Michelin PSS tires are the perfect combination with the
Plus Suspension.
LOVE to drive this beast... especially since it's EPA rated at 90 MPGe... or INFINITY MPGe when I utilize the FREE Supercharging.
I bought Tesla's 4 year Extended Service Agreement in March which will give me 4 more years / 50,000 more Smiles with only a small deductible for any issues. Should hold me over until the Model S is refreshed... or I find a deal on a Plaid Model S.
In the meantime, lovin' my "unicorn" ride (which even had NextGen (Recaro) leather seats front
and rear:
