A 200 mile commute won't be possible during winter without a LR battery.
Get the nonP for better range and still awesome performance.
Remember this is your commuter car
He said a 100 mile roundtrip.
Regardless, considering his current car, I don't think he'd be looking for the lowest cost solution (SR+) but the best solution.
So LR/AWD Model 3 with FSD should be that starting point, and will comfortably handle the range regardless of weather.
Note: Zipcode 95126 is San Jose, CA, so no worries about frigid temps, so the SR+ could comfortably handle that roundtrip.
With that routine trip, the current EAP-based status of FSD will definitely help make the trip easier and safer, which is why I'd recommend it regardless of which car.
And yes he'll need home charging with at least 240v/30A (14-30, 14-50 or 6-50 socket)
