I have a Model 3 Dual motor and I did indeed add the $2000 speed upgrade. I can notice a tremendous increase in speed, I'm really not a speed demon type of driver, just wanted to add the option while available.
I wish it didn't remove the Standard acceleration though. Hopefully they add an update where you can toggle between the 3 drive modes.
Awesome job on the video Brooks! It was really fun meeting up with you and getting to drive your Model 3 Performance. Can't wait to meet up at the track sometime and do more. Thanks!
Love your channel. You’re the only guy I trust reporting Tesla performance.
Trust me too :)
I tested the boost upgrade before/after, getting 0-60 and 1/4 mile times with the dragy.
I also extrapolate times for different states of charge, based on previous data.
I then do a full analysis of the better times and discuss how this is not the same as getting a full 5% HP increase and whether it is worth the money.

You trust him? The video clearly shows the dual motor with upgrade had a better top end but this guy reported them as the same because it was hard for him to admit the other car is faster.
@@mmark300 I really wish you would have done some rolling start runs. 60-120mph would have been nice. There is definitely an improvement at higher speeds that I don't feel was properly quantified on your reporting.
Nah, you should trust Top Gear instead.....hahahahahaha should be called bottom gear.
@@Asheface11 May be "missed gear"!
I like the quiet. I have worked in wharehouses and factories. Constant noise is aggravating. Noise does not bring me joy
A lumpy cam is music, not noise.
I agree. Loud exhaust is annoying. I’d rather “walk quietly and carry a big stick.”
You can’t beat a good sounding engine though
I did 20 years in the military. Noise doesn't bring me joy either.
Just got the upgrade and I love it! But shoot haven’t told my wife... she gonna kill me!😭🤪
Is the Software upgrade through Tesla?
@@Thephoenixrealtor Im pretty sure it is. Its $2k aswell if you didnt know
my dad said always better to ask forgiveness for a purchase than ask for permission
You can slow it down in the settings. She never needs to know. Happy life happy wife.
@@Beachtrader0007 yeah when the wife is in the car just drive in chill mode she will never know
This channel shoes the numbers and the race. Straight to the point. Nice video
*No typical engine sound*
The wind noise and nobody is talking about it.
Epic!
True. It only comes out the back windows on the 2021 and it totally sucks, anything over 70mph is almost unbearable, but I still love it. Tesla skimped on the back windows, did not double pane them like they did the front. I image the reason no one talks about the wind noise is bcz the car is so much fun to drive. I leased mine and can’t wait to buy my next one.
As a Performance 3 owner. I would like/hope to at least see launch control coming to us.
fasdewxccx xcvxcv Same here. I’ll be very disappointed and probably won’t buy another Tesla if they don’t widen the gap again. Nothing like overpaying for nothing.
@@justincasey This is a track car. The main difference in the track mode with different cooling system. So it is just impossible to have a great lap time every lap with regular model. The same with the brakes. Acceleration 0-60 is just a free bonus. It is not necessary on a track because you are starting just once there.
@@justincasey Tesla screwed you!)
Rumored Ludicrous mode might be coming. That should push the 0-60 time under 3 seconds.
@@FastRedPonyCar Maybe with the coming holiday update? :)
The boost upgraded Long range Dual Motor seems like a winner to me, The only additional upgrade I would want from the Performance are the bigger brakes.
That’s what I went with, haven’t bought the boost yet though ;)
Same. It’s so fast without it. I wish they’d give you a 30min trial
Bigger brakes need bigger wheels, and i like standard 18" Aeros for increased comfort and less road noise
@@jolipolijj Martian Wheels has the MW03 and MW05 which are 18” but have the correct bore for the performance brakes. I’m debating between the 3 and 5 for mine performance that’s coming.
@@lukeremis You can actually return the boost upgrade within 24 hours for a full rebate, you can do this once.
The quietest race ever
@muskcode only Tesla fanboys.
Lol who likes losing races loudly?
@muskcode also would be bad with electric semi trucks and electric motorcycles. I hope they won't let it happen because the only reason I know there is a motorcycle next to me is because I hear the loud engine
@muskcode That's BS. There's no way you can hear other F1 cars either over the noise of your own car and ear protection. Yes, they use ear protection because the engine noise is so annoying.
@muskcode People who don't want to get caught.
Dual Motor + is what I'll call mine.
Elon Musk, please give the model 3 performance ludicrous mode... I was actually thinking of that at a time that would be the next upgrade performance 🙏🙏🙏
That's a ludicrous suggestion... LOL. If you want the big fast crazy stuff you have to buy the big crazy car too. Mind you with the share price at @420 he might be a little brain numb and give away a santa present or two.
Well, if it's not quite ludicrous maybe flagrant or obnoxious speed. We should all watch spaceballs again to take our cues from the oracle.
Now that Plaid is for S and X, I guess 3 & Y can get Ludicrous mode
That of course depends on whether the motors in the P have unused capacity that can be unlocked. If the P performs at the physical limit of the hardware, it's not so simple to unlock extra power through software.
Great video. The dual motor with the $2000 upgrade is a real sleeper. If I were to buy, it would be the dual with the better brakes,etc. I wish they would offer something like that with the long range RWD that I have.
tempting... I have the long range dual motor without the upgrade and it is plenty fast enough to leave the ICE cars in the dust... but... still very tempting for the price of another good guitar...😁😁😁
They sold a Performance model without the larger wheels and red brakes. It was the Stealth Performance and it includes track mode. It was $2,000 more than the long range and has the same power as the regular Performance. The boost upgrade does not have as much power and omits track mode.
This is the video that many of us Tesla owners have been waiting for, so THANK YOU! Many of us LR AWD (non-performance) owners love how fast our cars are, but deep down we do have "P" envy. That's right...performance envy is a real thing. Now there's a pill for that, and it will only cost us $2k.
It tastes really good and the extra speed is insane.
This. I almost got the P but chose LR because I didn't want the sensitive 20" wheels getting beat up on rural NH roads, nor did I want to buy a brand new car just to toss out the wheels on day 1. Thrilled to know I can pay for (most) of the speed without shilling out for the performance brakes, pedals, and spoiler I would never use.
I would like to see Tesla release a $2000 acceleration boost upgrade on the performance model to make it even faster and bring it to 3s or under
Will never happen they need to sell that model s :)
@@jcabangon22 All I want is a faster 50-130, idc about the 0-60 with the performance. A regular lr awd model 3 can keep up with me and pass me 50-130 when im in a performance like wtf? The model S LR dips down in the 10 second 1/4 mile realm. They could at least make the performance 3 1/4 mile low 11's.
@@Runescapian0wner I heard they fixed that o.o? It was only an issue with the 2021
@@jcabangon22 I'm in a 2022 Performance model 3 and a 2021 LR (unknown acceleration boost or not) is still going faster than me after 50mph
@@Runescapian0wner wow that’s crazy!! You are getting me scared here! I’m getting my performance 2022 Saturday lol
I don’t know if a 100kwh battery is needed, but a 90kwh battery would be perfect. It wouldn’t be as much weight, while still adding ~100hp and torque. Also range would increase to 375 or so. Lastly acceleration times would be mid 2s and quarter miles in mid 10s which would be perfect. A 100kwh battery will get you 400+ miles of range and low 10s in the quarter mile, but it would add more weight which isn’t necessary or beneficial, cuz it might weight close to 4300 pounds, instead of 4100 or so with a 90kwh. Also a stiffer suspension, or air suspension is a must.
and then, there area people like me, that would rather take out the back seats and put in a couple more batteries ;o)
Just want to clarify the weight would increase only if using the same battery chemistry. If they are using a newer/improved chemistry it could weight the same.
mskz06 True, but I highly doubt they would change the chemistry of batteries because the Model 3 uses the latest tech from Tesla. It would only be smart of them to just make the battery bigger using the same formula or else it may cost as much as a current model S
I added twin turbos and nitrous to cool the batteries.
100kwh battery for Model 3 doesn't necessarily mean more weight. Its been a couple years and the battery cocktail may have improved significantly the energy density for each battery. Same number of batteries but each battery will hold more juice. Insignificant weight change. They just need to make sure the motors and powertrain can handle that much more juice and torque so there might be some improvement to individual components.
I have come to realize that most complaints about Tesla's are from people that have never driven one.
My cousin drove my Tesla S Performance and was simply blown away. "I gotta have one if these" was his response.
BTW, my last software update increased power in ludicrous plus mode (with not a lot of fanfare) from 0 to 60 in 2.4 sec to 2.2. I'm just saying.
Thanks for the comparison. Just wish roll out wasn’t used by car companies. 0-60 should be from standing.
Great video! I bought a model 3 LR AWD and about one week after picking it up got the little notification in the app asking if I wanted to buy "Performance Boost" for $2k. How does a man who's emotionally still 15 not go for it? And I was NOT disappointed! VERY well worth it. Added a carbon spoiler and some racing pedals and I'm having a great time.
Did you know a spoiler improves performance 5% (3% if it's Chinese plastic but 5% if it's real carbon fiber)? Ok...it doesn't...but it feels like it does. 😀
DUAL MOTOR = letters rearranged With increased HP = MODULATOR
well done with the letter play buddy
Amazing love it.
Great channel always straight to the point and then to the discussion. I think Tesla have again made a perfect move to keep their reputation up there. For $2000 if you want move performance on the long range 3 its a great deal. You can envisage other performance upgrade paths such as Ludicrous 3 maybe at the same time as Plaid S to keep the product placement gaps but its win, win, win ! I bought a P85 MS in 2014 and soon after came the duel motor, so you feel a bit like you should have waited but then Tesal upgraded the P85 and you soon forget anyway and think hell they are all brilliant. I think Tesla listen to owners and if there is an undercurrent of dissatisfaction or need they respond with upgrades or offers. Why wouldn't they? Everyone wins. And to my mind they also update the charging algorithms tweaking the performance / charging characteristics of the battery. Tesla have the data and the technology to continuously improve the ownership experience even years after purchase, no wonder we love these cars every time we drive them, even 5 years later.
Great upgrade, worth the 2k of you already have the duel motor non P.
I like it as a sleeper.
I don't regret getting my P3D+ at all but if AWD+ was an option when I purchased I may have gone with this. Of course... what does Tesla have up it's sleeve for the P3D?
Same here. Hopefully, Ludicrous will be an upgrade option for the current Model 3 Performance.
@@rzvqvb I'm doubtful as the suspension is a huge reason for the S being able to be in Ludacris. If they do bump the m3p I'll be disappointed that they didn't make the AWD+ 3.2 seconds
@@tonyc6996 lol getting awd+ and asking for 3.2 second 0-60 time aka supercar status speeds for that price point. definitely only needs to be performance level/class. l also doubt that ludi mode will be an option as it will drive away sales from the S and X.
@@Delc0 willing to pay more to get it to 3.2 but the 15k difference for wheel, and brakes and a spoiler isn't worth it. And there's sleeper AWD M3s that can do it I'm 3.2 so I'm not asking for anything that's not already available
@@Delc0 you're also comparing supercar speed to a 60k car... Which can do that trick. But that's about it
Great test spot I use with dragy tests is to magnetize it to the back edge of the wiper arm. Strong satellite signals and the most consistent elevation curves I get at the same location.
Man Tesla really needs to give this guy the first Roadster in production even a sick prototype let Drag Times to do some indepth deep deep testing.
A 2 door model 3 performance hatch would be nice
Unless you want to take it on the track and race it the performance model is not worth having with the tyre problems and hard suspension and cost of tyres!! The $2k upgrade is sweeter. I have really noticed the jump in the acceleration with the boost. The Long Range with the boost is a real wolf in sheep’s clothing. In NZ now they’re not offering the LR any more. That’s a pity
It’s too close between the two now. My guess is they’ll release an update to do the equivalent to the Performance else there’s really no need to buy the Performance. Kind of fun watching EVs evolve.
True but the performance does have lower suspension, upgraded brakes, and track mode. I just ordered my model 3 and was originally going to get the performance but ended up downgrading to the LR DM. I figured it's gonna be my daily and I don't want the rougher ride. Mom has a performance Y and it's kinda bumpy
@@louie111887 It's those fat rims that make it so bumpy.
They haven't released any power increase for the M3P since December 2019. Tesla really dropped the ball on the M3P and screwed its owners over.
@@louie111887 You can lower suspension for ~$760, get cool rims and upgrade brakes on the LR and save good money and not really any huge difference.
@@InSaN3ViSioN You just mentioned atleast 5-7k worth of mods...later when you sell it it won't retain the money you added in it. Might as well get a performance.
I don't understand why, at 8:21, the gray had a sudden acceleration and deceleration. Does this mean that the gray was not at its maximum power ???
Interesting results and spot on. Faster rolling but slower 0 to 60 on AWD+.
Removed my dual motor badge upon delivery. I like the unknown 😉
I'm going to debadge mine in the next couple of days. What did you use?
@@GregHassler fishing line and a heat gun
@@tonyc6996 thanks! I figured. I'm going to try floss, don't have fishing line. I started but it was cold out and didn't have the heat gun with me.
I removed all the badges, total sleeper, covered all the Tesla emblems except the ones on the glass, when the service guys offered to put a Dual Motor badge on my car, I said, nope.
@@dwebster83 I've seen the hood and trunk ones removed I think it looks great. I'm just hesitant if I want to put them back on how I'd get new ones
Tesla: We need cash
Tesla: $2000 software update, they'll pay for it.
How much would it cost in hardware, software, and time to make an ICE car improve its 0-60 from 4.4s to less than 3.9s? I doubt you're talking a simple stage 1 remap at those power levels. All that testing and tuning and dymo runs... makes a $2k software update a lot less 'laughable'...
@n s I can't entirely argue with that, as I will miss the sound of my 530e when the model 3 arrives, hopefully next month. I might just have to get creative make the noises myself :P
Brooks, when you first got the most recent 5% update you reported a 117mph 1/4 mile run as well. Why wasn’t that discussed?
I haven’t run my Tesla 3 performance at the track but there was a clear sotp feel difference after the last 5% update down low and at highway speeds as well.
Regardless, love your videos!
indeed, that was at 100% charge, right off the charger.... couldn't replicate it at the track though when I raced that Challenger 1320.... maybe cold battery, etc...
DragTimes
Good point, forgot about the soc factor...
Thank you for clarifying; however, it looked like the performance was still pulling slightly more up top regardless of the similar trap speeds.
Overall it seems to be a drivers race on the highway as you stated.
I’m still happy I got the Performance as the brakes and tires are more suited for the acceleration. The faster off-the-line acceleration is nice too💪🏻
Ben Jake totally!! That torque requires those nice oem Michelin’s. Absolutely. And the 10mm drop makes a diff in how it feels every day.
Please check my tests for all kinds of info with the 5% upgrade, state of charge and the latest boost upgrade:
I tested the boost upgrade before/after, getting 0-60 and 1/4 mile times with the dragy.
I also extrapolate times for different states of charge, based on previous data.
I then do a full analysis of the better times and discuss how this is not the same as getting a full 5% HP increase and whether it is worth the money.
ua-cam.com/video/B33syeFwbtU/v-deo.html
I’m going to buy the LR after watching this. I really don’t want to spoiler, lowered suspension, or the larger wheels.
Hopefully the m3p has a boost upgrade coming very soon.im now on the fence more than ever between ordering a performance or long range in the next month.hope tesla says something
I discuss the M3P difference here also:

@@mmark300 thank you ill take a look at the video. Hopefully tesla announces a ludicrous mode in the very near future.
That's not how that works, there's no physics left
I boosted our 2022 model 3 long range it rocks! I recommend the boost. It runs with my model 3 performance so the boost is worth it!
I’m watching this video at the same place that it was filmed. I was looking at the background and realized that I’m charging my car at the same exact Wawa.
Model 3 Ludicrous may follow the S Plaid to keep the S as king of the hill.
No, the cars aren't too close. The Performance model isn't just about the straight line power. You can get an LT1 V8 in a base model Camaro, or you can get that same engine in an SS. The SS comes with better suspension, brakes, etc. The 3 Performance is no different.
Same battery and same car minus the performance bits. I bought a P3D- for roughly $2k more than a LR AWD, before the price increase.
The 2023 Tesla model 3 long range even without acceleration boost, beats the times 0 to 60 and quarter mile then the 2007 shelby GT500 with 500hp
Im considering doing the acceleration boost, we’ll see.
This is a great video. Thank you so much, this was exactly what I was looking for.
Teslas are truly Incredible!
What model year Model 3 Performance did Brooks have?
Tesla basically unlocked the performance power on the awd LR with the $2000 upgrade. That’s gonna make some of the performance model 3 owners a little upset. I know I’m a little pissy because there was over $12,000 difference between the awd lr and performance when I bought mine. :(
🙏🙏🙏
Right there with you Dude. With the models S and X, the performance versions are way faster than the non-performance versions. So why is Tesla showing this disrespect to the 3P owners?
Um no. Lol
Turbocharged Dude I wish it was an equal unlock to the P, but it is not. It’s still a good value for folks like me that bought an AWD though. The P still smokes the AWD off the line. Pretty much a .6 second diff as Tesla advertises. After driving the P and AWD+ back to back today, I still wish I had P speed. Just not as much after the upgrade.
Agreed I own a P3D and I’m thinking the exact same thing!
7:26 the droids you are looking for
It looks like difference between the original Roadster normal 3.9 versus Sport 3.7 - it's all in the takeoff. The power is the same but the point at which full power begins is a lot lower at takeoff with the original Roadster Sport - the sport firmware anticipated wider tires. In this case it looks like the performance firmware launches more quickly as the suspension and tires are expected to be there to handle it.
They boosted 0-60, but still not as much as the performance model.
I discuss it here:
I tested the boost upgrade before/after, getting 0-60 and 1/4 mile times with the dragy.
I also extrapolate times for different states of charge, based on previous data.

ua-cam.com/video/B33syeFwbtU/v-deo.html
I ordered it as soon as I got the email. I'm calling it The Sport too. Now we have DM, Sport and Performance trims. I can sure feel the difference. 😁
I have an old Passport G-Timer unit which is accelerometer based. I hit 0-60 mph in 3.50 sec on back to back runs in 32 degree weather. Very happy with the Acceleration Boost upgrade. Also, my pervious run few months in the summer with free 5% increase run on the same road came out to 3.82 sec., that was probably in 80 degree weather. So, I am thinking my car may be slightly quicker once the temps are back over 70+ degrees. DT, what was the temperate on the day you ran these cars?
Take 'em both to PBI with same charge on same day with at least one pass where Brooks is the driver of the other car.
as CarWow found, ALL the difference between the dual motor Model 3s is at the start. From ~60 MPH on up they are identical until the speed limiter is reached.
I think it's too early to tell. I personally got the AWD and took a rist as I saw that there was a potential for it to eventually be more like the performance.
It's close, but not quite - I was hoping the same thing:
I tested the boost upgrade before/after, getting 0-60 and 1/4 mile times with the dragy.

This video seems a little short, would you please do an expanded one? Maybe go deeper into the matter? I really like to know and please do not miss any caveats
Great video and IDEA man! Hoping to hear more about upgrade for Performance version!
I prefer quiet powerful cars. So nice to just go without all the drama.
Note: Carwow showed that the LR catches the Performance on the top end too.
The performance does have 20" rims and the DM has 19"? What would happen if both cars had the same size rims. 1" could make a difference. Swap the rims and do the race again?
dumas1012 If it only was that easy. Performance models have a weird stepped hub. What I would like to see is large barrel aftermarket 18”s that fit on M3P w/ big brakes ***with smaller diameter tires***. I know some of these lighter aftermarket wheels are already available, but I’m curious about the gearing advantage. Does it make sense to give up some of your 162mph top speed to get slightly lower gearing? Or is the car already traction limited from 0-40 mph so a taller tire makes more sense for a higher 1/4 mile trap speed? The first thing Model Y owners will probably try is bolting on smaller diameter Model 3 wheels & tires.
Best video with the comparison of Model 3’s yet. Well done!
No it's not, it's completely misleading not starting at 0mph
note also that M3P comes with bigger heavier wheels and brakes. To go the fastest you need 18"..like aero wheels with covers on M3 LR and side mirrors folded.
I clocked mine after boost at 3.77s today
Wade Wilson you think it’s worth it? I’m considering it
@@bigwilly528 Definitely worth it! Unless you plan to sell your LR for a performance.
Should be called "Dual Motor +"
or AWD+
hotrail awd doesn't look as nice on the back of a car. Dual Motor has an elegance to it
Jordan Banko - Agreed. AWD+ is only a shorthand for discussion boards like this - not for the back of the car. Someone suggested a dotted underline under the “dual motor” for the boosted LR AWDs... that would be cool! Or maybe just “Dual Motor +”. As for me, even with the boost I’m just going to leave the stock “Dual Motor” unmodified on mine.
My AWD came with no badge (they sent one later, but I'm not mounting it). With the upgrade it'll be Super-Sleeper Mode :-)
Dual Motor Turbo
Here’s my Dragy time for the upgrade:
ua-cam.com/video/waFaJ1xDvJM/v-deo.html
That's faster 0-60 Dragy times than all of the runs with mine. Nice!
come on Elon been over a year wheres the ludicrous upgrade for the M3P...kind of crazy the LR Boost is that close to the top M3
It would be better to have the Long Range because most people are driving the vehicle 95% of the time, and 5% is performance. even the long range has trackable capabilities; with a very good driver at the wheel it can be amazingly fast. Performance makes sense if one is to track the vehicle constantly and always, then yes.
Seems like an oversight for Tesla to make the awd that good, unless something amazing is coming for the existing Performance owners
Yep. Plaid for Model S, X & CT. Ludicrous for Model 3 performance. Make totally sens.
@_ David _ Ludicrous for the 3 was revealed in the software code
@_ David _ You can Google it. There's already a few articles sourcing a well known reverse engineer who took apart the latest update (Xmas 2019) and inside were string references to Ludicrous mode for the 3 as well as "Sport".
The oversight is the video doesn't show the race from a standstill
Possibly designate the Acceleration Boost version with a black line under the Dual Motor badge. Can be bought through eBay.
Performance upgrade on mine... FUARK! amazing driving experience..
The “Jan Brady” car finally gets closer to Marsha!
Yes, the Jan Brady version got a BUNCH of horsepower. But the Marsha Brady version is probably going to get a lot faster after its Brady Boost. The RWD Cindy will be a drift machine after it’s boost. Not sure what to call the SR+....what was the name of the Brady dog?
@@apricity69 hahahahaha
The 3P with the heaier aeroturbine wheels vs a 3LR+Sport with some ultralight forged wheels would be interesting.
But there should be update for the performance version too right?
No, guessing it's maxed out in hardware already
I have that boost option. Pretty quick ride now.
How do the speeds change with the different size rims? Or if it is the same over all diameter tire size.
Amazon sent me the performance badge, and I bought the spoiler, pedals, and caliper covers for that performance look. I purchased those chrome wheel covers and chrome lug nuts as well.
It's a decent commuter car. I hope one day the fSD works correctly.
Just listened to the last of this video.
Making the Model 3 P faster than it is now will probably be more hurtful to the motors. So, the next model 3 P will probably be one with a slightly more powerful motor along with a more powerful battery. What do you think?
From rolling start, it looked like the non-Performance car jumped from the torque when stabbing the accelerator..
Corwow has also tested the performance between the model 3 versions.
The LR also accelerates better at higher speeds.
I spent over $10k for Performance... this is a bit too close... need ludicrous for M3P
Joseph Wolfgram Same here. I’m really happy for the AWD owners, but feeling I wasted my money if they’re this close.
Judging by the current rumor mill, you may get your Ludicrous mode before too long..
I'll trade my AWD with the boost for either of your Performance versions, I'm still kicking myself for not just buying one when it came out I. The summer of 2018z
It's closer, but M3P still has a lot going for it - I discuss it here:

You guys received a 5k refund. Stop crying. If you guys get ludacris, the we LR should get a software unlock. You guys are already pulling high 2
Massive rumors of the new Model 3 Highland having a new rear motor , perhaps pushing 600-650 hp overall for vehicle.
If they go to 100 battery pack, I hope they let us upgrade ours, the early adopters (or im going to have to figure this upgrade out, I know the current pack can support a lot more power as it is, the battery simply never gets hot when I race it, no matter how much I run it) - and those of you say its boring, your slow ICE cars will soon be considered boring once we start pushing electrics into the 9s, its coming, these motors arent even screaming yet (like racing drones do)
Thanks for the video. I pull the trigger and paid for this boost. How long does it take to have it download over the air?
Tesla is trying to stay ahead in the competition. BNW has a new M3 rumor with 510hp from the X3M. The new 100 model 3 will destroy the new M3/M4.
Trap speeds on the drag strip would typically be lower then on the street. Stickier surface means more rolling resistance.
Wow. thats surprising and super cool! Id get the long range and unlock it EVERY TIME.
Are the motors the same? If so you could get a long range and do suspension and brake upgrades.
Release new Model 3 Performance + with 100kWh pack and Ludicrous. Sell it for 6 months to see who bites and then offer a software upgrade to "old" performance Model 3 to boost their performance midway between.
They have a video long range beating a performance from a 70 roll, both stock
You can also add the OEM spoiler, its $800 from Tesla.
With all of the long range option their prices are the same so the performance is the better option
I'm thinking what's going on is they are trying to get a little extra profit on the AWD allowing you to keep a fast affordable car and then transitioning the Performance to a 100kw to make even more money at a more premium price point.
Can someone fill in here? 0-60 mph, without rollout:
Awd:
Awd+ (2kusd upgrade): 3.9 s
Performance:
Awd: 4.4
P: 3.3
Rollout starts timing after 1 foot travelled.
I just picked up my P3D+ last week. Now I'm pissed.... Hope us performance owners get some sort of upgrade to stretch the difference back out.
P3D is $6k more. It’s quicker, better braking, Track Mode, and wheels if you want to count them. I would much rather have P3D over LR AWD.
@@threeseven7894 THE WHEELS AND TIRES ALONE ARE WORTH 4K.
I got my P3D+ 2 days ago with 0 regrets. The hardware difference alone is worth it.
@@threeseven7894 I agree that there are a lot of good upgrades for the money, but the most significant (in my opinion) was the P3D being over a full second quicker 0-60 than the "lower" version. Now that's gone. And I will most likely ditch the 20" wheels anyway.
Kawboy65 I picked up mine today....already pissed.
To me other than the dig off the line they are dead even. I've heard (unconfirmed) that the inverters in the P are better so perhaps the non P can't take that initial energy spike but once rolling is the same - seems to make sense. As a non P AWD owner I've not pulled the trigger yet but probably will eventually.
My video may help you decide:
I tested the boost upgrade before/after, getting 0-60 and 1/4 mile times with the dragy.
I also extrapolate times for different states of charge, based on previous data.
I then do a full analysis of the better times and discuss how this is not the same as getting a full 5% HP increase and whether it is worth the money.

Elon said yesterday they’ll be offering the boost also on the “RWD model” soon so why not the P?
Insurance issues?
Where Elond said this? (Acceleration boost for rwd)
Thanks

I try...but i don't find the tweet...Sorry but i've a sr+ and i'm very interessting...., do you have a link (to copy and put it in my sr+ forum)?
Thank you very much
Christian Obligis no someone asked him if could add the boost to the SR and Elon responded “sure.” It will be coming ...they need to
Boost the P3D too! Just a matter of days
What do you use to track the times and 0-60?
How do you get this boost? After I pay on my tesla page, will my app notify a new download right away like any other upgrade so far? Or does it just get it in some other way?
Tesla says that it takes some time to get it. My car was connected to wifi, and had it just a minute after purchasing.
So you can only set the car to CHILL or SPORT, wonder why they include a NORMAL setting? So is CHILL mode with the Performance boost as fast as the regular NORMAL mode? If left in SPORT is there a loss of efficiency?
Like the P85+, LR’s with the performance boost can be dualmotor+
We are thinking 🤔 of model 3 performance vs cost of just getting model 3 standard is the money really worth it for speed?
At what speed did the rolling race start?
Did you inform insurance about the boost in speed too will they charge a couple hundred more since it's now more prone to accidents
Appreciate all you do. Can I ask a question. I have a 2012 Camero Ss indy Pace car. Not a scratch, mint condition with about 90k miles. Love the car but I WANT the LR 3. I'm getting a favorable trade in price for the SS. Should I pull the trigger.
I will wait for the 100 kWh model 3. Great Video Thank You
Yes they made it way too close. If I owned a P3D I'd be kinda disappointed in tesla.
Why? The Performance version is still faster, still has more power, and still has track mode. Nobody pays for a performance tesla because it is worth the money for the upgrade, they do it because they want it, and can afford it. The most practical Tesla's are the basic long range ones, and they are plenty fast, and keep up just fine on the top end as well, it is just that you don't get quite the same launch from a stop without AWD, or the larger output inverters on the performance versions.
0-60 is closer, but still not much of a contest - I discussed it here:
I tested the boost upgrade before/after, getting 0-60 and 1/4 mile times with the dragy.
I also extrapolate times for different states of charge, based on previous data.
I then do a full analysis of the better times and discuss how this is not the same as getting a full 5% HP increase and whether it is worth the money.

BTW how does dual motor whiteout power upgrade does against performance on rolling race. Because i think they would still be quite similar.
Hope to see your Plaid vs. Lucid sapphire
Test the dual motor Y upgrade vs the dual motor sport Y
