It looks like they've removed the long range single motor option. It used to be

- Long range single motor: $49,000

- Long range dual motor: $54,000

- Long range performance: $64,000

Now it's:

- Mid range single motor: $45,000

- Long range dual motor: $54,000

- Long range performance: $64,000

So it looks like a savings of $4,000 off the older long range single motor.

The RWD LR model 3 was my go-to and the one I was considering.

With this change, they have now essentially replaced that model with one that has 50 mile less range.

Now the long range version looks so much less appealing as the price is now over $60k($5,000 more for entry LR) for an AWD upgrade I have absolute no use for.

I'm the opposite direction. I got a RWD LR model 3, but I hardly ever drive it. And when I do it's all local stuff, well under 100 miles per day. I'd rather have saved the $4,000 and gotten a mid-range.

If someone approached me and offered to trade their mid-range + $3,500 for my long-range, I'd happily take that deal.
