New "Chill / Normal" acceleration modes?

[MacGreiner]

AP definitely acts differently. Smoother pull aways. Not sure yet on braking.

This is really interesting info - do you have this data for different models and corked and uncorked that could be superimposed? Even just seeing the 75d corked vs uncorked superimposed on the same chart like this would be very useful.

Thanks for all of your hard work on this entire uncorking topic over the past few months!

Yeah, we have the data. This stuff is all in the Performance Metrics. iI made a graph that compares two tabs (in the master file that keeps GPS data), but I couldn’t think of an easy way way to change which two were being compared. Ideally I need pull down menus for the tabs (which auto populate the tabs when a new tab is added) that change the data source.

I don’t suppose any excel jockies are following along? I haven’t had time to learn how to do that.

My wife finally tried the Chill mode. One of my kids had a stomach bug all week, so she tried the Chill mode out. My kid (in back) loved it. Wife hated it. Now that my kid’s illness is over, she has switched back.

She also mentioned that the Chill mode didn’t seem to have any affect on Regen, just made our X accelerate like an ICE car. She hated it.

For those wondering. It seems that chill mode is only available on dual motor cars.
Can anyone debunk this one with a verified chill mode mode on a RWD Tesla?

Tried chill mode on our P100D lol. Seems odd to have chill, sport and ludicrous on the same tab lol.

Actually enjoyed not having a constant torque feel once and awhile and just a nice relaxed ice style acceleration. Definitely smoother overall.

Now I wish I could refer to it as ‘wife mode’ and have a passcode lock lol. She has a heavier foot than I do

I have chill mode on my RWD.

Same here - Chill mode present on my RWD.

Cool. Thanks guys.
I'm glad to hear that was tosh. We all get to chill! Yay

Chill Mode seems to only be available for the newer models (AP1 and up?).
I've got the 2017.46 update on my classic P85+ (VIN P24xxx) today but no Chill Mode for me (only Easy Entry). :-(

This would have been a nice feature for winter driving and I was actually looking forward to it.

 

[Siggy101]

Thanks for sharing your findings migselv. It seems that there was some truth to it then.
There are some Ss which do not get chill mode. Sad.
Indeed, it seems like a handy tool for winter conditions. I hope you aren't in Norway!

My passengers loved Chill mode. So much smoother and more comfortable around town.

 

[Knightowl]

so color me confused, why are some RWD teslas getting chill and others not?

Another one with Chill mode here. 2017 MS 75 RWD

Maybe Chill mode is only available on refresh cars and not Classics?

Mine has it too. March 2017 built Model S RWD.

I just had my p85 serviced and didn't get chill mode with the update. When I asked, my advisor informed me chill mode was only for dual motor cars. So even classics should get it if they have dual motors. Too bad, passengers liked the smoother ride on the loaner they gave me.

"Chill Mode' not yet seen in Oct 2015 Model S85D (Dual motor) with AP1, just got an update on Tuesday, 8.x version 2017.42 a88c8d5 . Did get camper mode (keep AC on) though.

I guess I will have to wait and see if (and when) 2017.44 becomes available for the Chill Mode option, although I would more likely not use it very often, perhaps only with more passengers in the car, as I like the jolt of energy as I accelerate to the speed limit quicker than most other average vehicles from a standstill.

no, not only refresh cars...

my pre-refresh AP1 70D has Chill Mode, since v 2017.44 02fdc86 (updated Nov 9/17 while at Svc Ctr for other work)
Chill mode was not included in the prior version I had, v 2017.42 a88c8d5 (updated Oct 27/17)

Thanks f-stop, I will await the next software release (be it 2017.44 or later) and check again to see if Chill Mode then gets enabled. Would be nice to have it for that 'occasional' relaxed spin around the neighborhood w/friends or family.
