In this video tutorial, I will walk you through the process of enabling and disabling the speed limit mode on the 2022 Model S Refresh. This feature affects the car’s acceleration and top speed, so it’s essential to know how to manage it.
Firstly, to access the speed limit mode settings, click on the car icon located in the lower left corner of the main control feature screen. From there, you can enable or disable various driving modes such as sport, insane, and drag strip by adjusting the speed limit.
To enable the speed limit mode, navigate to the safety settings and scroll up until you find the speed limit mode option. You will be prompted to enter a four-digit code (the default is 1234) to engage the speed limit, restricting the car’s top speed to a preset value, such as 90 miles per hour.
Enabling the speed limit mode effectively disables the sport, insane, and drag strip modes, ensuring the car does not exceed the specified speed limit. This can be useful for regulating the vehicle’s speed, especially in specific scenarios.
If you need to re-activate the sport, insane, and drag strip modes, simply disable the speed limit mode by entering the same four-digit code in the safety settings and re-gain access to the car’s full acceleration capabilities and top speeds.
Additionally, the video highlights another way to control the car’s acceleration by using the valet mode, which restricts the car’s performance when leaving it with valet parking attendants.
Ultimately, understanding how to manage these settings provides greater control over the car’s performance, ensuring it operates within desired speed parameters and driving modes.
If you encounter any issues or need to make adjustments to your car’s speed settings, following these steps will help you effectively enable or disable the speed limit mode and manage the car’s acceleration modes.
How do I enable or disable the acceleration and speed limit mode in the 2022 Model S?
To enable or disable the acceleration and speed limit mode in the 2022 Model S, follow these steps: 1. To enable or disable the sport, insane, and drag strip modes, click on the car icon in the lower left corner and access the main control features. 2. To enable the speed limit mode, go to the safety settings and scroll up to find the speed and limit mode. Click on it and enter the default 4-digit code ‘1234’. This will engage the speed limit mode, restricting the car’s speed to 90 miles per hour. 3. To disable the speed limit mode, tap on it once again and enter the code ‘1234’ to disengage the speed limit mode. 4. Additionally, you can use the valley mode to disable acceleration and speed modes to prevent unauthorized usage of high-speed modes such as sport, insane, and drag strip modes.
What are the top speeds for the different driving modes in the 2022 Model S?
The top speed for the 2022 Model S in sport, insane, and drag strip modes is 155 miles per hour. However, in the valley mode, the speeds are reduced to prevent unauthorized usage. The Model X has similar speed characteristics, while the Plaid variant can reach top speeds of up to 200 miles per hour.
Can I restrict acceleration and speed modes for valley parking?
Yes, you can use the valley mode to restrict acceleration and speed modes when valet parking your car. This ensures that unauthorized users cannot access high-speed modes and drive the car at its full capacity. To revert to normal mode, you will need to enter your passcode.
