Track Mode
Track Mode, available only on Performance
Model 3 vehicles, modifies the vehicle's
stability control, traction control, regenerative
braking, and cooling system to increase
performance and handling while driving on
closed circuit courses. Track Mode improves
cornering ability by intelligently using the
vehicle's motors, and regenerative and
traditional braking systems. When enabled,
the cooling system runs at an increased level
during and after aggressive driving sessions to
allow your vehicle’s systems to withstand the
surplus heat.
Track Mode is always disabled when you start
Model 3. To enable Track Mode for your
current drive, shift into Park, then touch
Controls > Driving > Track Mode. When
enabled, TRACK displays on the touchscreen
above the driving speed. You can disable
Track Mode at any time by turning the setting
o on the touchscreen.
Track Mode remains on even after you exit
your vehicle to quickly cool powertrain
systems between driving sessions. Track Mode
automatically turns o when the vehicle is
suciently cooled or if the vehicle is powered
o and you power it back on again.
Warning: Track Mode is designed for use
on closed circuit driving courses only. It is
the driver’s responsibility to drive safely
and ensure that they do not endanger
others.
Warning: Track Mode is designed to be
used by experienced track drivers familiar
with the course. Do not use on public
roads. It is the driver’s responsibility to be
in control of the vehicle at all times,
including on the race track. Because
vehicle behavior (including Traction and
Stability Control behavior) diers from
typical use, drivers should use caution
when using Track Mode.
Note: Track Mode was designed and calibrated
for Performance Model 3 with the
Performance Upgrade Package. Vehicles
without performance brakes and tires may
experience comparatively lower performance
and endurance.
Note: When Track Mode is enabled, all
Autopilot features are disabled or unavailable
(including safety features such as Automatic
Emergency Braking, Forward Collision
Warning, etc.).
Note: Some settings, such as Slip Start and
Regenerative Braking, are overridden and
cannot be changed until Track Mode is
disabled. When Track Mode is disabled, the
settings return to their previous state.
