Ah. Well, I suppose that makes a certain amount of sense. But it does leave me wondering how hard it can be to shorten the wheel base. The battery pack already comes in different sizes so they must have that figured out. There's no drive shaft or transmission. It's hard for me to imagine that making the platform shorter is that much harder than designing a whole new body.

It probably requires re-tooling their assembly line. One of the main purposes of the Model S is to scale the assembly system.
