Tesla’s new 100 kWh battery pack first arrived with a “performance” designation, hence the “P” in P100D , but now the company has released the 100D version of the upgrade option, which delivered the same capacity, but tweaked for efficiency rather than speed. The 100D option was added early Friday morning, promising an additional 20 miles of range based on EPA standards.
That means the Model S with the 100D battery pack gets 335 miles instead of 315 for the P100D, Electrek notes , and the Model X gets 295 miles instead of 257 miles for the performance option. Both of these options will bump the price of the car by an additional $3,000 vs.
