AAKEE covered a lot of if. To get the claimed times on a Plaid (at least for the 1/4 mile) you have to be somewhere in the 90% range. For each 10% of less SoC, I figure I add about a tenth to my 1/4 mile times. So start at about 9.3 and add about 0.1 seconds for each 10% drop in charge starting when you go below 90%. Is this perfect? No, but pretty close to back of the napkin math.So hold on, let me see if I understand correctly. The the level performance available is relative to the state of charge?
Does that mean that assuming I start from a 100% charge, the more I drive the less performance I have available?
I would've thought that would be controlled by the driver through the screen like sport modes in ICE cars... as in if I have 20% SoC left and I want to go balls out that's my issue cause the car doesn't know how much further I want to drive. Is there no way for me to manually set it max performance at all times?
Or do I understand this completely wrong?
And btw I know these are probably questions that have been asked a million times so I understand if you guys don't want to go over it with me again.
I did road racing a lot in the past before the Plaid. Plaid is a death trap on a road course unless you upgrade the brakes or drive very cautiously and don't overheat them. I just now feel comfortable taking it to anything other than straight line events.Thank you DT ... I'm more of a road course guy (I race Porsches) but I think it will be fun to take this thing to the drag strip.
I was talking to a friend of mine with a 1200hm tuned TT 720 and he said we should do it and it will be close,
But on a daily driving level, if I have the thing set in Plaid mode, will I be able to tell the difference when I mash it off the light to 60 or from 40 to 80 whether the SOC is at 90 or 30?
When do you charge your car? What time of the day?I’m charging to 80% every day due to my work commute being 50 mile round-trip. That still leaves me plenty of miles five to go further and save the battery
I always got a note in the Teslq app exactly 15 minutes before the set time on my M3P.It will be ready before the scheduled time. My experience has been about 10 min before. If you don't leave, after about it will send you an alert and ultimately it shuts off. I don't call the exact time that it takes until it shuts off.
I charge daily whenever I get home and keep car plugged in at all times in the garage.When do you charge your car? What time of the day?
Then, from your earlier post;I charge daily whenever I get home and keep car plugged in at all times in the garage.

Thx for info.Then, from your earlier post;
The battery will be fine, but you do not ”save the battery” with that charging habit.
80% is not the sweet spot for low degradation. It causes about the same calendar aging as 100%
To ”save the battery” you would like to have the SOC at 55% or less most of the time.
If you need 80%, or like to start the day there you could set a charging scedule that makes the car ready and charged shortly before the next days first drive.
Of your end of the day SOC is 50-60% you probably only need a few hours of charge in the late night.
Keep in mind, that if you set a departure time, it won't make sure your car is charged to XX%. It will just condition the battery and set the climate control appropriately.Thx for info.

Then don't do it?Baby sitting battery to 55% is very annoying. So if the battery degrades what's the reason not to get the full power?
You think you buy a car that has 300+ miles range and in reality you do not if you care about it.
Is the current limited even battery temperature and charge is fine?
