Gentleman in the YT says 2.9= 1/2 a second faster than the old M3P. How is (3.1-2.9=.2) .2 seconds almost 1/2 a second faster? I'm just curious if I need to retake 2nd grade math.That guy is never right and always lies about things. He just cares about clicks and nothing more.
Exactly. The bloke just sits on various forums all day and just repeats what he’s read as if it’s fact. I would highly recommend not wasting any time listening to his rambles.Problem is he churns out 8 videos a day and doesn't fact check everything and he contradicts himself on a regular basis.
If they are quoting true 0-60 times, I could see that, which means approx 2.7 with 1ft rollout. My best true 0-60 is 3.28 with a few 3.37, 3.48, 3.51.Gentleman in the YT says 2.9= 1/2 a second faster than the old M3P. How is (3.1-2.9=.2) .2 seconds almost 1/2 a second faster?

I think that would make this new M3L live up to this new moniker IMO. And with more HP up top should be a nice upgrade.
Just simply changing to 18” wheels got me down to 2.9 seconds with rollout subtracted with a Model 3 Performance. There is no way they are going to swap to a new motor and gain that little over the previous car.My gut says the 2.9 is with rollout
Is it motor limited to 60 or traction limited? I'm thinking more that improvement is the wider rear tyres and not really to do with the motor change, that likely helps at speeds beyond 60.Just simply changing to 18” wheels got me down to 2.9 seconds with rollout subtracted with a Model 3 Performance.

Traction isn’t really an issue on most teslas.Is it motor limited to 60 or traction limited? I'm thinking more that improvement is the wider rear tyres and not really to do with the motor change, that likely helps at speeds beyond 60.
So why put wider tyres at the rear this time? It's still an EV where range will somewhat matter.Traction isn’t really an issue on most teslas.
The new one is faster and I suspect may have a larger proportion of the power going to the rear. And handling benefit tooSo why put wider tyres at the rear this time? It's still an EV where range will somewhat matter.
Have they published overall dimensions? I’m curious if the rear track is widerThe new one is faster and I suspect may have a larger proportion of the power going to the rear. And handling benefit too
Doubt track has changed. Rear fits 275s with ease.Have they published overall dimensions? I’m curious if the rear track is wider
Non square widths are a detriment to handling on the well balanced model 3. Nobody that races one goes wider in the rear.And handling benefit too
Yep and I’m hoping the also sell it with the 19” rims that were leaked from the parts catalog awhile back. 20” are STOOPIDNon square widths are a detriment to handling on the well balanced model 3. Nobody that races one goes wider in the rear.
This is about making the car look more aggressive without taking too much of a range hit. It's marketing, just like the 20" wheels are. Look at all the people in the thread asking for wider tires, not actually focusing on speed.
The front easily handles a 275, and everyone that cares about handling should immediately go to 18" 275's all around.
My guess is it’ll be like the prior M3P where most countries get 20s, but a few get 19sYep and I’m hoping the also sell it with the 19” rims that were leaked from the parts catalog awhile back. 20” are STOOPID

The ball joint direction puts the nuts too low for an 18" wheel to clear.
