V2 of Track Mode coming to M3P

[DaddyCool]

Anyone know if this is a $$ feature?

We are hoping the software is free. Not sure I trust what is said in the video until I see it show up in a future upgrade

Model 3 Track Package

$5500 in the US, expecting similar here.

Requires a service centre visit.

Teslarati implying software only with package?

 

[Durzel]

The presumption at the moment is that it will be a software update for M3P, but the hardware to "exploit it" is the additional cost.

 

[Bernard_S]

$5500 for a set of wheels and tyres + brake pads + $30 worth of brake fluid ? Sounds a bit steep.

 

[Dangerous Fish]

You could do your own tyre/brake upgrade for less than $5500 of course...

Proper racing fluid won't cost $30 though. And $5500 is including the labour.

Or maybe the cost to cover hardware and software.
5.5K is a bit steep for me to go to Knockhill and come up with a creative way of totalling the car (without roll cage I may also meet my demise)

the side camera in that picture looks black, either it’s just lighting or I wonder if they’re going to start making a de-chrome Model 3. If so I wonder if we’ll be able to buy the parts and retro-fit.

Just watched the video and I want the lights promoted at the end more than the V2 hardware

 

[Vadervonham]

I think it is going to be a free software update for the traction control / drive train adjustability. At least that’s what I’m hoping!

Don’t think even Tesla can update wheels over the air. Not yet anyway...

Have to say, I feel like I should hate it, but I liked them too.

 

[JCremonini]

Help me out here...

I thought the dual motors worked by the front motor having a specific output which drove the front wheels and the rear a specific output driving the rears ( two motors). Therefore, surely switching to, say 100% rear just means the front motor has zero output while the rear has all its output . So, in effect you are losing all the power from the front motor but getting no more for the rear. So, if each motor has the equivalent of, say, 250bhp, you are limiting the car to 250bhp compared to 500bhp if you ran it 50/50.

What have I missed ?

Someone commented that the output of the motor battery limited. So if we can send more juice to the motor = faster. This may not be useful at all on the street, but on the track for a few laps should be fun.

Looking forward to 0-60 FWD, 0-60 RWD and doing some calculations .

Also I wonder if the 50/50 power split might satisfy Bjorn’s desire for a snow mode?

 

[rtshefe]

in vehicle virgins video today he said all m3p get track mode v2 free OTA

hopefully he is correct

apparently in a straight line the torque split isnt active *see vehicle virgins video

He is.
