    I went with the LR+boost. I'm in a cold climate and drive in a lot of snow. I wanted the extra inch of clearance, more comfortable ride, and whatever max miles I could get. Overall very happy with what I have!

      @@SlowAsianDriver given the price increases over the past year, the price gap between the LR+boost and P is now only $3k. So anyone buying today would have to ask themselves what value they are getting from that $3k and if it's worth it. Before I would have 100% gone with the LR+boost as you saved $6-8K, but today I'd opt for the P given the minimal price difference. For anyone that may read this, just do a cost analysis and see what the price difference is before making up your mind.

      @@ashegam The cost of the car may only be 3k however I too live in a state where we can get snow. Meaning I also have to buy an extra set of wheels and tires…which is another 3-4k. If you live in a warmer state and are ok charging out the tires ever 10k miles. Go with the performance no question.

      @@ashegam Yes I agree with this hence why I decided to go with the Performance model this time around. I had the 21 LR Y but sold it off due to the crazy market for them early nov last year and immediately put my order in for a 22 MYP requesting it to be one of the 4680 structural pack from Austin. From when I initially bought my Y LR at $49,990, spending an extra $10k for the performance at that time made little sense. Now with the price difference being only $5k ($3k with lr + accel) you get the better looking uber turbines (which now have michelin pilot sport all seasonals), matrix led headlights, and the more powerful 980 motor. plus random goodies like cf spoiler and aluminum pedals. All in all, I think the value you get with the performance now makes up the difference where as before, it was too large of a gap to make sense (early 2020 stealth performance models were the same as long range they just unlocked the performance tune via software at the service center)

    I just added the Acceleration Boost to my LR. It was already crazy fast before and now it's insane. I can't imagine how fast the Performance is. If you could get the Performance with the smaller wheels and higher ground clearance I probably would have gone for it but the roads where I live are so bad I would probably pop a tire on a monthly basis if I had the 21s.

    Truthfully, while the Performance model is very impressive, the long range+boost model is overall a better bang for your buck type of car. Half a second of speed difference for an extra six thousand dollars is a bit hard to take when you also get:
    -20~ miles less of range and no winter tire option.
    For me the LR+B is the way to go. Good on anyone that gets the Performance model, but it certainly isn't for me.

    Thanks for the great video and Review. I got the long Range with Acceleration boost don't like lower suspension and prefer the winter ready Induction wheels plus the 20 miles additional range is handy. I did a rolling acceleration test of 0-60 ~ 3.9 seconds which is more practical than a standing acceleration test and that is plenty fast. If I wanted a sports car I would get a M3P instead. This is a fast enough crossover but a hell a lot more pratical.

    I have a long range dual motor Model 3 with acceleration boost. Really quick but in comparison to the performance the performance is better because of the performance package such as Brakes, suspension etc. You need those with the extra power. I have had some close calls because of the braking. So when I purchased the Y for my wife I opted for the performance model. The performance was more for me LOL. Better braking and suspension is needed with the extra power/speed. My opinion based on personal experience.

    I got the Performance model. Most Tesla owners don't realize that those Brembo brakes alonnneee make it worth it as those aren't cheap at all, plus those 21'' urberturbine wheels/tires are like 5k on teslas site! Even for $4500-5k The 21'' wheels are sold out on Teslas site, that tells me the LR owners regret not upgrading to the Performance in the first place.

    • @SlowAsianDriver
      @SlowAsianDriver  2 года назад

      When this video was done, the pricing difference between the LR & P was still over $7K. Now the P comes with All Season tires, so you don't even need separate wheels and/or tires if you live in the cold climate. So unless you need 7-seats (which isn't available on the P), getting the P is a no brainer. Btw, the brakes between the LR & P are almost the same...the P's pads are slightly thicker.

    I'm getting non-performance Y with boost because if I went with the performance, I would need to buy new wheels and tires due to snow and crazy potholes in the northeast. I prefer 19" wheels for better range anyways. So with new wheels and tires, the performance package would end up costing me $14000 extra.. not worth it for half a second faster 0-60.

    The price difference between the Performance and Long Range is only $5k now. So if you get the Boost, then it's only a $3k difference. Performance is a no brainer now. Especially if you are planning to sell/trade in your car later. Dealerships don't take Acceleration Boost into consideration when they price out your car.

    Great video comparrison. I do have an order for a LR Y here in the UK.I have since found out that the MY will come from China to the UK.I have put that order on hold now as I only want the Giga Berlin version, due out mid 2022. Reason being, better paint job , single pressed front and rear sub frames, 4680 batteries and new adaptive headlights. I think this Berlin model will be the best all round value for moneyTesla to date! it's going to sell like hot cakes all around the world.
    There is a chance that this Berlin version may have air suspension but I'm not holding out for that. I also have the debate as to whether it should be the performance or Long range, but like most on here I would prefer the higher ride height. The Model Y at this point in it's development does suffer from ride quality both with the P and LR, this I'm sure Tesla MY will be improved either by air suspension or an upgrade to the standard suspension.
    My intention will be to keep the Model Y long term and It's good to know that should the LR Y need a pep up or suspension upgrade, all this can be done at a later date to get the perfect model y to suit.

    • @SlowAsianDriver
      @SlowAsianDriver  3 года назад +1

      Thanks mate! Keep in mind that all Tesla vehicles continue to evolve and when you wait you risk potential increase in cost. The MYLR already went up 24% in the past 12 month here in the US. MY surprisingly also has a very strong resell value…so a lot of the folks keep the car for 24-36 month and trade in for the newer model…sort of like an iPhone. Good luck with your order and enjoy it in good health. Cheers!

    Interesting and well made video. Questions, How expensive is the "acceleration boost" which was added to the LR? I realize that this video is a little bit dated, at this point, but have read that the advertised range of the 2022 LR is 330 miles. However, if the larger wheels and tires (similar size to the performance) are put on, (which I believe the LR in this video has) it reduces the range to 318. How much of a range reduction is attributed to the "acceleration boost"?

    • @SlowAsianDriver
      @SlowAsianDriver  2 года назад +1

      AB Option is $2,000. The current price difference between LR+AB and Performance is $2K. Having AB doesn’t hurt the rates range on the LR…b/c it’s simply a software upgrade. Just like a gas car’s EPA rating, your actual MPG varies with your driving style. In real life the rates range difference between LR and P rarely comes into play as you will be recharging well before you hit the limit. IMHO, the MYP looks better with the 21” Uberturbine wheels…which now comes with all season tires…so winter driving isn’t an issue anymore.

    Those 21” tires and wheels are going to be a PITA down the road because of the very low profile tires. Beware of those alloy wheel denting potholes! I feel the Performance model doesn’t differentiate itself enough from the LR Y at the current MSRP pricing. Except for the pedals the interior is identical. It would look awesome with red stitching on the seats and steering wheel. The new price difference is almost $11k between the two.
