Tesla has started rolling out Track Mode for Model S Plaid owners, with the release of its 2021.44.30 software update.

“The increased regen is awesome. Haven’t had to use the breaks at all! The suspension definitely feels more “adaptive” to the imperfections in the road and the torque vectoring [is] noticeable when coming out of a turn with high power,” said @SplitDaWig, after trying out Track Mode on their Model S Plaid.
“My only gripe is that this much regen control is not given at ALL times,” added @SplitDaWig.
