Plaid top speed reduced from 163 mph to 149 mph?

[sorka]

Anyone notice that the order page for the Plaid now shows the same 149 mph top speed as the LR?

Put on the 22” wheels and it’s 163

Entirely not my point. The 20" Cyberstreams used to be 163 mph but now the the Plaid 20" comes with all season tires. When I got mine it came with summer only Y rated (186 mph) tires and the top speed on the configurator was 163 mph for both wheel sizes.

Not that this is a particularly relevant question given I'm unlikely to exceed that speed, but did they keep the original 163 mph for the 20" wheels that were delivered with Y rated tires or did they lower it for everyone with a software update?

And of course, those that actually need the speed can just change it in the settings to 22" regardless of which wheels they have on. The car doesn't know the difference. The diameter of the 22" tires is the same as the 20" tires.

My page still shows 200mph with both the 19in and 21in wheels

Not sure where y’all seeing 20 and 22in wheels.

My LR tops at 156. i was surprised how stable it felt

So has anyone had their top speed reduce to match the new advertised top speed? Note, I'm NOT asking anyone to go out and test this

No, pedal to the metal in mine is 163 but momentum will slingshot ya past that pretty easily. Lot safer feeling than ice where they pull spark sometimes to keep ya below a speed.
