Thought it would be worthwhile to explore progress and get opinions, in the battery efficiency and cost space, to project how long it will take Tesla to produce a 400 Mile Range EV..maybe with a Model 3 , which I expect will be the best candidate to get there fastest.
Disagree. The S is the more likely candidate for two reasons:
1. It's the flagship premium vehicle so should lead the way in range and can more easily handle the price premium the larger pack will demand.
2. It's greater size means it can more easily hold more batteries. For long distance highway driving aerodynamics plays a greater roll than weight.
So while I expect the Model 3 to be a more efficient vehicle I think the S will still be the first car offered with a 400 mile range.
