Like the 335 mile range in the 100D?
Hi, @John E. Here are some of my predictions:
- All 75 kWh S/X will be discontinued by the end of Q2 2018 to increase gross margins. Tesla has two targets: units and gross margin. The 75 kWh S/X have around 12-14% gross margin. They were not discontinued until now because Tesla needed them for unit targets. With the Model 3, they don't need them anymore for units and they are no good for gross margins.
- Model S/X will switch from AC induction motors to the more efficient permanent magnet motors. This will increase highway range by 2% and city range by 8% based on some data points I have seen. The overall increase in EPA rated range will be 5%.
- All 100 kWh Model S and X prices will come down after the 75's are discontinued.
That's exactly what your question was about.You are comparing a $50K car to a $120K car, no fair.
My S75D gets 177 Wh/km on average.The 310 EPA rated M3, what will be the real world, not a single Tesla gets its EPA mileage as printed, so would a M3 be good for 295 real world miles then?
do you feel that the M3 will stop this trend and be more accurate or even better than published (outside all caveats of driving style, weather, etc)

I get the EPA mileage in my 75D.
The dual motor versions of the Model S are significantly more efficient than the RWD versions, especially on the highway. We have an 85 as a company car and when my S was still a 60D they had almost the same highway range (within 5 miles of each other). I can easily get 250 wh/m on the expressway with AP on.@jelloslug Thats great, my 75 gets 226 at 100% way below the 249 EPA, so are you getting 259 range at 100% on your 75D, this is the first I have heard someone getting that from an owner, bravo.
Although a lot has now been written on how the BMS can be reset, getting the full range is great as per the figures on the screen.
My last drive I have done 258 miles driving but still get only 226 when fully charged
Isn't it odd that no Tesla ever achieves its EPA range (including my S90D), but my BMW i3 routinely gets more range than its EPA rating?The 310 EPA rated M3, what will be the real world, not a single Tesla gets its EPA mileage as printed, so would a M3 be good for 295 real world miles then?
