Thanks a lot! Those are really high numbers. Have you done 1/4 mile or 1/8 mile drag strip testing with your car?
Range Mode on setting from my testing only adds about .4 of a mile on a 90% charge. These cars are getting 10-13 more miles at 90%.
Awesome graph!I've updated and made a simpler chart in an attempt to show the current differences between 2015 P90D and 2016 P90D:
The big difference you can see is how much Max Batt Pwr ON improves the 2016 P90D which has the new battery pack. Previously Max Batt Pwr ON was mostly just a warm-up of the battery. Almost the same performance could be achieved with the Max Batt Pwr OFF and battery at temperature from driving. While I think that recent software allows Max Batt Pwr ON to enable a little extra power beyond simple temp in the 2015 P90D, it is insignificant compared to the big jump it enables with 2016 P90D.
Hopefully we can collect more data from the 2016 P90D to fill out the chart.
Your new graph shows results in the 510 range, while the old graph had top results in the 495-500 range. New data or graphing error?I've updated and made a simpler chart in an attempt to show the current differences between 2015 P90D and 2016 P90D:

Same thing in the non P version of that battery. More capacity (about 8-10 more rated miles) but radio silence from Tesla other than attributing it to the new nose which doesn't make sense because we were seeing this increased capacity 2 or 3 months before the refresh. I'm happy they are improving things, maybe they think it will piss off people who just missed it?I've been posting updates in the thread that Bhzmark mentioned above since it is the most active for now. Actually it is good that all the discussion is taken place there since so many want to go back and forth on the whole Tesla HP/Drag Strip performance truth issue. I still plan to keep this thread updated once the data points begin to converge but here is the latest:
As you can see, there is not enough data for the 2016 Max Batt Pwr OFF to give a reasonable curve fit. Eventually we'll get enough to show what is happening. There is little doubt that new battery packs in the later 2016 models are performing well above the previous Ludicrous mode. It is about the same as the difference between Insane and Ludicrous. Curious that Tesla has not said anything about it yet.
