My request that the Arizona Attorney General's office investigate Tesla's changes to Ludicrous Mode

[Shir0]

I believe I have the V2.

SOC = 65% --> 461 kW | MBP ON
SOC = 94% --> 470 kW | MBP OFF
SOC = 82% --> 484 kW | MBP ON

SOC = 82% --> 484 kW | MBP ON

Is that without launch mode?

 

[jerjozwik]

also, maxbat on or ready?

Without launch mode on every test.

SOC = 65% --> 461 kW | MBP ON --> READY
SOC = 94% --> 470 kW | MBP OFF
SOC = 82% --> 484 kW | MBP ON --> READY

I believe I will get 510 kW on SOC 100% MBP READY

What is the "good" software version then ?

 

[davidc18]

I have a V2 and the best I have seen is 490 at 95soc max battery on and ready.

check the battery part number to be sure.

 

[jpetters]

Based on the battery part number how do I know if I have V1, V2 or V3?

[alcibiades]

I wonder how those who were claiming this was all about nothing feel now that Tesla has admitted it was something and returned what was initially taken?

They will say "See, Tesla made things right!" while ignoring everything else.

Question: Was there any reduction in the P100D battery (1086755-00-C or 1086755-00-D)? If so, does the latest update improve the P100D numbers at all? Anyone know how many amps that delivers when Max Battery is Engaged alongside Ludicrous + Easter Egg?

This article

says they monitored a peak of 1850 amps from the battery during ludicrous plus mode.

Shows Tesla's willingness to act to remedy poor company decisions without intervention of a judgement.

What?!?! Arguments were done and Team Tesla had just finished admitting to degrading the performance of the vehicle. Looks to me like they made an informed estimation that they were about to lose a judgement and have to read about it on Electrek, etc.

In my opinion, this exactly shows their unwillingness to remedy the mistake without legal intervention.

 

[P100DHG.]

What internally motivated them and compelled their final performance is hard to speculate on.

Looks to me like they made an informed estimation that they were about to lose a judgement and have to read about it on Electrek, etc.

I tend to agree with your hypothesis. The press has not been good on this as it is. Maybe a loss, even in small claims court would have been enough to damage their "P"erformance branding beyond their liking or ability to repair.

Awesome. Thanks for that link.

That's considerable increase over the P90DL v3 numbers.

I will be trying the with my v1 battery tomorrow. Just got home and I'll do a 100% SOC tomorrow and let you all know what happens on a v1 P90DL battery.

I have the v1 battery (1063792-00-A), and a 2016 June MSP90DL build and the most current firmware (2017.32.6.ca28227)

All below times were with Max Battery On and Engaged, Launch Mode Used, Range Mode Off, AC on, but set for 70 degrees, so it was running with Fan on 1 or 2 and at night, so lights were on.

Run #1 - 99% SOC = 3.0 seconds, 454 kW
20 seconds of wait time.
Run #2 - 98% SOC = 3.0 seconds, 456 kW
1 minute of wait time.
Run #3 - 97% SOC = 3.0 seconds, 456 kW
20 seconds of wait time.
Run #4 - 96% SOC = 3.0 seconds, 457 kW

Numbers were pretty consistent across these four runs.

I didn't see any increase of kW from my runs earlier this year on the older firmware, however I do have a v1 battery, and after 19,000 miles, 100% SOC went down from 270 (day I picked it up) to 253 miles (today).

Yes there was. Unknown if anything has changed?

 

[AnxietyRanger]

100% SOC went down from 270 (day I picked it up) to 253 miles (today).

The battery degradation on 90 kWh is certainly much greater than with old 85 kWh...

V1 1063792-00-A
V2 1071394-00-A
V3 1088792-00-A

Which version is 1071941-00-A? I've seen a few of us on here with that but I can't ever tell which "Vx" that would be. I've looked at the spreadsheets, pdf, etc, but must be missing it.
