M3 Performance after updating to 2020.48.12.1

[chdavis]

My 2020 Model 3 Performance is feeling a lot faster after 2020.48.12.1
- anyone else??

is it in my head?

I thought so to. But its probably the fact its still new to me and we've had pretty crappy weather for good hard launches.

No change in power is referenced in the update notes so I would say it's a placebo effect. Unless you have dragy data or other data?

I don't have data but my ass is quite perceptive

Yes I've made similar claims to my wife and her response is well, your ass is grass and I'm the lawnmower

interesting.. I tried to...

(moderator note: this is a bit too descriptive for this website, so I edited it out rather than deleting your entire post. you could be a bit less descriptive (more vague) making the same joke and I would likely leave it).

Installing update now......will check butt-o-meter later.

dot.dot.dot release is a bug fix, they wouldnt introduce a power boost here

can't say I feel a difference. Even after the car wash this morning

Oh and it sure doesn't feel slow lol

What if the bug they are fixing is causing the car to go too slow?

 

[Needsdecaf]

I so rarely go to full power, I wonder if I'd even notice. LOL.

If it's something even a wife can detect going to supermarket (i don't think wife is at WOT often..) this can be what Tesla can do everytime without put it in changelog of the update: alter the ratio TPS (throttle positon sensor) TO output.
It' simple to alter it if engineers at Tesla wants.

Nope, no miracles this morning, this is still a slow 3.29s car (3s 1ft)
warm tires, bat 80%.

It's in your head. tested it out today, with my battery over 105 degrees and on the same road i do my 0-60's on, it was 6/100ths slower than my best time.

you may want to go have a professional investigate the functionality of your butt. If you're near Vegas, I can recommend a few places.

Appreciate you taking the time to verify / debunk this.

The thing is with cold weather coming in, people don't understand that the difference in the speed that peak torque comes on, between a battery pack that is under 95 degrees, and one that is over 95 degrees is significant. What people 'feel' as increases are more than likely nothing but temperature variations with the battery pack, that's why I always monitor battery pack temps along with the dragy data.

idk guys.. I still feel something fierce through my ass

I feld the same yesterday. I was driving with my son. Car was cold, ambient around 10C. We both felt a beefier oomph at the launch. Doesn’t matter if it isnt showing in the 0-60 time. The first kick is the best and sets it apart from a standard LR.
