Turning radius D

[celter]

I am very satisfied with the turning radius on my P85+, since I came from a FWD car. I have some tight parking places to negotiate and I am a bit concerned about the turning radius on the AWD Model S. Do you think it necessarily will be larger?

I can't imagine why it would be any larger. The vehicle geometry is unchanged and there's no locked transfer case between the front and rear.

Elon really touted the tight turning radius of the Model X because of the AWD. Oddly, no mention of that on the D.

The CV joints that deliver power to the front wheels may limit the angle the front wheels are able to turn.
