Tesla just introduced ludicrous mode for $10k, but it's 2.8 seconds 0-60!
As well as RWD 70 and 90KW batteries, see design studio

Only ludicrous? I'd been hoping for plaid ...

What happened to the boldfaced portion of this footnote to Tesla's P85D specs that was removed from Tesla's web site not that long ago?
"The P85D top speed is currently electronically-limited to 130 mph. In the coming months, we will be able to upgrade the car free of charge to enable a 155 mph top speed. This free update will be available for the lifetime of the car (not limited to the first owner). Additionally, an over-the-air firmware upgrade to the power electronics will improve P85D performance at high speed above what anyone outside Tesla has experienced to date. In other words, the car will be better than you experienced. This free upgrade will be rolled out in the next few months, once full validation is complete."
Today Musk announced a $10,000 Ludicrous Speed update. It wasn't exactly the "over-the-air firmware update" that was promised above. Am I not reading this correctly?
Was there any mention of this is backward compatible with P85Ds?
I see now in web u can configure as a 90d now I understand how all the p85+ guys felt

OMG... Wow... That's freaking nuts if you can afford it...
I'll wait and read here to see what people think of the extra $3K for a 90kwh battery vs the standard 85...

What about existing owners of p85d
90kW battery speed improvement
can we get them?
The web shows u need the battery pack upgrade for total of 13k...anyone know if can backward retrofit ? No mention in mtg
I'm curious if the $10k ludicrous toggle is simply a software setting and the car is otherwise identical to a 90kwh P85D without ludicrous enabled, and stuck at merely insane. (Sort of how supercharging can be enabled on a 60 via software)
Going out on a limb, I'm thinking not. It's probably not a few more 18650 cells shoe horned in somewhere, it would be a chemistry change or a new pack geometry. Meaning a new pack.
