Why does P100D still advertise as 2.5s?

[Maximilien]

Model 3 Performance gets 3.3 seconds with rollout and it seems that how Tesla advertise it in Model 3 webpage.

P100D has been out over 1 year and it still advertises 2.5 seconds. We know there was a speed OTA upgrade. First time it was 2.4 seconds with Easter Egg and then I think maybe another update(?) helped push 2.34 seconds. MotorTrend then tested out and got 2.28 seconds, so it seems it is safe for Tesla to advertise it 2.3 seconds in the homepage.

I don't understand why Tesla doesn't put 2.3 seconds 0-60 which can attract more buyers.

Also can some P100D drivers confirm whether they get consistent 2.3~2.4s or get 2.5 or above?

Tesla is conservative so every buyer gets what they paid for even if there is some production variance, and Motor Trend measures with a 1 foot rollout that cuts time.

I have a P100D, I drive in Ludicrous mode at all times. I care exactly zero if it's 2.5 or 2.4 or 2.3, etc. It's so quick it's bananas, that's good enough for me. I haven't actually done any logging to see what the actual stats are. I'm not sure they are losing sales by not putting 2.3 on the site.

Better than 2.5 w rollout considering this run has passengers...

For insurance purposes, I wish they said it was 3 seconds!
