Range Difference between 75D/90D versus 90D/P100D

[hill]

From the configuration page one can find the following;

75D shows 237 miles range
90D shows 257 miles range

The extra 15kWh's of the 90D yields you 20 extra miles over the 75D

Yet the P100D shows 289 miles range

The extra 10kWh's of the P100D yields you 32 extra miles over the 90D

Disallowing for some kind of mathematical paradox - how does that work?

Wondered the same thing.

The 60/70/75 battery is completely different than the 85/90 battery which is different than the 100 battery. Range due to a kWh battery is not a simple math equation and depends on many factors explained in link above.

The best advice repeated here is get the biggest battery you can afford.

The listed 90D range isn't accurate:

Could EPA Range approximations for 90D be low to help sell more P90D ?

I don't think we've determined that it's not accurate. That thread has gone on for a while but without any reliable conclusion. My effective range seems to be in line with the EPA range for a X90D.

More likely the X 90D range is accurate any everything else is overly inflated.

Well, I exceed the EPA range on my Model S P85...

Thanks all for input - not that it shored up the thinking that much. I was reluctant to post, thinking it'd already been explained. Here's to some future more definitive answer down the road.
