Is Elon underselling the range on the Dual Motor 3, just as he did for the RWD variant?
The RWD 3 was tested at 334 miles of range by the EPA (with the aeros). Without aeros, it was closer to the 310 miles range that Tesla asked the EPA to publish.
When EPA specs leak for the AWD/non-P variant, what do you suspect the range will be for the 2 types of wheels?
Elon stated over the weekend (when discussing the brakes) that the regen in Dual Motors is going to be stronger than the RWD. The S variants have all seen a range bump in the AWD configs when compared to their RWD variants.
I just find it hard to fathom that we won't see ANY improvement in range with Dual Motors, and I suspect the numbers are being sandbagged again.
So, what's the "napkin math" say? 4% 5% 6%? More? Less?
4% boost: aeros= 347 miles / 19's= 322 miles
5% boost: aeros= 350 miles / 19's= 325 miles
6% boost: aeros= 354 miles / 19's= 328 miles
