With the software capability to limit batteries as such, offering a wide range of battery options cost Tesla nothing, but allow them to fully address the market from 60 to the top end, even with the upcoming 100. This way more people could spend money on options, which are generally more profitable, and they can unlock the battery incrementally at their choosing. In the end, when the car is turned in, Tesla can still recoup the remaining unlock battery on the CPO sales.
Speaking of options, ludicrous mode available on all 80 and up could potentially generate a lot cash at $5000 each.
