YOU ARE WRONG!

The label on my Model 3 Long Range RWD says its Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) as: 4,806 lbs
Website Model 3 Spec says Mid range RWD is: 3,686 lbs.

If they are the same battery, they should have about the same weight.
Modern assembly lines can switch between options fairly easily. They've only ever had one line for the Model S and Model X and have multiple combinations of drive units and batteries available for them.Since they have only 2 production lines, they can't have 3 options.
The good news is that you'll be able to order it without a reservation in Q1 when you find out you're wrong.This also proves that LR AWD P is just software. Once demand for the LR AWD fades, I'm guessing they will start an MR AWD and MR AWD P. And then SR RWD after MR RWD. SR AWD will be the last option to be manufactured. And since that's what I want, I don't see it happening before Q3 2019. So with a heavy heart, I just cancelled my inline reservation.
You are comparing the MR RWD with the LR AWD (which is now the only LR version available). The old LR RWD version weighed 3805 lbs, so the MR is about 120 lbs lighter.
I can see where you would get that idea based on the modelS 60. That was done to avoid the development cost and manufacture changes on a limited number of cars that tesla committed to sell before cancelling the model. The midrange and standard range cars will not be like that special situationI think the mid range battery pack is a software limited long range battery pack that can be upgraded for a fee in the future! Elon loves this kind of stuff! What do you think guys?

No, nuke it from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.This thread needs to be killed with fire

Not sure I can follow your math. Could you recalculate?Don’t compare GVWR to GVW. Makes no sense. One is a rating and one is a weight. The GVWR is what it is allowed to weigh before it is over loaded. The GVW is the weight of the vehicle empty. A one ton truck typically has a GVWR of 1300 pounds and weighs around 7400 pounds.

Weight and GVWR are very different things. GVWR is max Gross Vehicle Weight Rating, that’s what the car can weigh at it’s maximum when fully loaded (to its max)The label on my Model 3 Long Range RWD says its Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) as: 4,806 lbs

The mod tag isn’t enough?Given the thread is clearly false, maybe also edit the thread title to Init Cap.
I guess you've never been inside a flexible assembly plant where multiple models are built in the same line and even not necessarily w/the steering wheel on the same side.Since they have only 2 production lines, they can't have 3 options. So, it just MR RWD and LR AWD.
