Join The Community  60 kWh Model S EPA range released   Does
that mean that they could potentially start delivering 60Kw cars
this year?  Nice...EPA-rated 208 miles, 95 MPGe...Impressive.
And TimJ: Not a chance.  Those are very impressive numbers.
@TheAustin I agree, just wishful thinking on my part. I am
getting the 60kw and found out that my friend that reserved
after me with an 85kw got the email saying he could get his car
this month. Kinda upsetting, but understandable.  I hope this
means that they can begin production early in January. For
revenue purposes, I do not expect production to begin in 2012.
Wow, that range would have met my requirements. A pleasant
surprise.  However, based on where I live, I closed my eyes and
clicked for 85kWh anyway, just based on my guesstimate that
after a few years I'd only get 75% or so of the rated range as
the battery ages.  So, while I have no regrets, I'll bet a lot
of folks who opted for 60kWh will be pleased with these figures.
