They also didn't say that it *would* be eligible.
Tesla has said all along that details could change and that as those details were released reservation holders would be given the option to change their minds. I understand that some of these details are not matching some people's utopian mental models of their Model S, but those people really need to take a deep breath.
Bad assumptions in this post. As I wrote elsewhere - the Tesla rep I talked to yesterday in the store said she had been telling everyone supercharger would be available on all models and was surprised to see the news.Tesla has said all along that details could change and that as those details were released reservation holders would be given the option to change their minds.

Just order two Big Macs instead of one while you are waiting!
If they allow Chademo connection there will be no difference.

Wrong. Tesla employees salesreps in the stores are representing Tesla officially.Agreed. An individual rep's word - although the only information we may have at a particular point in time - is not official word from Tesla.
This is a new market, a new company, and new technology. It's not going to go perfectly.
Lets face it, it would have been really easy to place clear and detailed information on their site stating, "0-60 time is with 300 mile battery pack only". But they didn't.
No, because all the website said was that the Model S went from 0-60 in 5.6 secs. Also, at some point they had announced a supercharging system of some kind but didn't say that the 160 car would be inelligible.
I've seen several people say this, but that is wrong. Tesla has always talked about a quick charge in 45 minutes. That was part of the specs from the very first demonstration. They haven't shown the exact data and the details around their solution for how they were going to recharge in 45 minutes until recently, but that is not the same as announcing it.Perhaps so, but the supercharging system wasn't announced that long ago.
Why are people treating these terms as identical?I've seen several people say this, but that is wrong. Tesla has always talked about a quick charge in 45 minutes.
