Stuck at 105 mph

[Riha]

My car tops out at 105 mph, but the motor feels like it has more to give. I love how it handles at top speed, almost like a Ferrari Dino or Mazda Miata (not that I’ve driven one). Is there a way to remove the limiter and tap into its full potential?

Didn’t even know he was still in there, but the BZ4X has unleashed my inner speedster! The car feels so solid through turns it’s like it’s stuck to the road with super glue. I know EVs aren’t huge fans of high speeds because of air drag but if the Tesla Model Y can hit 135mph, 105mph doesn’t seem so bad. With no noise or vibration it feels more like cruising at 80mph maybe I’m just getting old. And surprisingly I haven’t noticed much range drop even at those speeds

Exactly, the stability at high speeds is incredible, and it barely feels like you're pushing it. I just wish Toyota didn’t cap it at 105, feels like there’s more potential.

I think through a scanner and reprogram the ECU.

That’s what I was thinking! Wonder if it’s just software-limited or if there are hardware constraints too.

105 mph and it wants more? That's crazy! I've been wondering about the real limits of these vehicles. Be careful with the limiter, though. Do your research or get a pro to help. Safety first
