Here's my version:Maybe I don't understand the hardware reasons of why the car must reduce power based on SOC. If I have this bad boy in INSANE mode, then.. STAY INSANE until I decide to charge up! I don't need it to conserve power, this mode should be the advertised 691HP at ALL TIMES. Give me a ECO mode for long range, or just recommend me to use Sport mode when the battery drops- but Elon, there needs to be a mode that can deliver advertised power regardless of battery state. Unless someone can chime in here with the hardware reasons (maybe battery pack cannot output as much power as the charge level drops) then I am slightly disappointed here, especially because the power drop happens so quickly. I wouldn't be complaining if it was dropping below 20%, but 50%? That sucks.
My car is nearly 2.5 years old and nothing has changed in this regard.KEEP THE P85 ACCELERATION UNLIMITED until I decide to charge up! I don't need it to conserve power, this mode should be the advertised 416HP at ALL TIMES.
Sadly I don't hold much optimism that either vehicle will have this problem addressed.
I hold some hope that Tesla will at least talk about what's holding back a "pushed" P85 and a "battery below 50%" P85D. This would at least help the aftermarket know where to start looking for providing improvements once we get out of warranty and are willing to take more risks with 3rd party mods.
