Tesla Model S P85D will improve quickness through over-the-air update

Already able to hit 60 miles per hour in about 3.2 seconds, the 691-horsepower Tesla Model S P85D is absolutely no slouch when it comes to acceleration. Of course, one of the great things about owning a Tesla is the possibility of over-the-air updates coming at any time to make the brand's vehicles even more capable.

Elon Musk recently announced the latest software improvement on Twitter (embedded below) for the Model S to make the P85D even quicker. The upgrade sheds a tenth of a second off the dual-motor's already impressive acceleration to 60 thanks to an improvement to the inverter algorithm. The tweak affects the single-motor P85 too, but Musk said the effect would not be as significant. We can't wait for the inevitable updated passenger reaction videos once this enhancement tweak goes live.

P85 acceleration will also improve, but not quite as much
