What kind of efficiency gains did we see in the Model S going from single motor to dual motor?cwerdna said:Those are really impressive MPGe figures for the Model 3. For awhile, the two most efficient in terms of MPGe were the Chevy Spark EV and the BMW i3 BEV (http://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/Find.do?action=sbs&id=33640&id=35207&id=38557&id=38523).
I do wonder about the Ioniq EV figure and whether the EPA has done their own verification (own testing) of Hyundai's numbers. Or, if they screwed up and will need to downgrade it (ala https://hyundaimpginfo.com/aboutsettlement in the past).
In real world it is not significant but the S had a smaller motor in the front on the non-P and I doubt that will be the case with the PM motors, likely the same motor front and back with software for separating performance versions.
