But it also says 522 hp engine power on the 70D and 334 hp, so I guess the motors can give 261 hp + 262 hp but have some different inverters or other electronic that makes the difference.428PS = 422hp
the 522 i think is an error that is yet to be corrected on the SE website, and should read 422
Nice curves. ;-) Yep. Looks like there is a power limiter taking hold at about 325 kW = 435 hp. And "double-punching the accelerator for some reason"? I've done that too...
So I think we can safely say there was no change to the 85D, only to the marketing materials, right?
Hello all,
I took delivery of my 85D on March 4th so I was bummed to see this updated model. I emailed a Tesla representative at Short Hills and asked what would happen with mine. After checking with Tesla, he assured me an OTA update will "enable the 85D to go 0-60 in 4.4s." He also added there was "No word on timing". So excited to hear this, and this hopefully provides some reassurance to other owners.
My rep told me it will be an OTA update to all of them, not just the new ones ordered from today onward. Something about learning that the motors can take more than expected and essentially 'overclocking' them to achieve more power.So do we now know definitely that all S85Ds will be able to do 0-60 in 4.4s?
Is this because of a recent or upcoming software update or have they always been that fast?
The German website is similar:428PS = 422hp

It says that the 85D produces 428 PS (Pferdestärke, our horsepower), and it shows 522 "Nominal Motor Capacity" because of dual 261 PS motors. So 428 PS seems to be what it's rated at—at least currently—and 522 PS is what the two motors together are theoretically capable of.
Two other interesting points: The S85 has differing numbers (by 18 PS) for its power rating and nominal capacity; and the P85D only shows its nominal capacity, not its rated horsepower. So it all muddies the water a bit, though with the 85D it's easy enough to see where the 522 PS comes from.
On the other hand, it raises interesting questions about whether the 85D's rated PS will eventually come closer to its nominal capacity, making it potentially a four-second car...
Have you verified personally that it doesn't yet hit 155 mph?I'm a little frustrated with the lack of information given to current 85D and p85D owners. The website has advertised 155mph for both the 85D and p85D for many months. I remember that when I first ordered the 85D many months ago, the 155mph was on there. This has not yet been delivered.
People have already seen 4.4 0-60 on the 85D. I think they were listing conservative numbers before and have updated the order page with more accurate information.
If they shaved a full second off the 85D you know they'd be making a press release and shouting it to the high heavens.
