Large+ is effectively dead now. Large+ is 121 kWh I think.They should add Gen2 Large+
Also makes the Gen1 Large a great deal!

Wow - so the G2 trucks are getting 3mi/kWh rated (on street tires)? Bananas.
The definition of normal driving is what changes everythingIf Gen2's are regularly achieving 3mi/Kwh in normal driving, I'll eat my own shoe.
Yeah its how the average person drives the vehicle. In congested Socal traffic, I can hypermile it and get >3 mi/kwh during my 40 mile commute to work. But driving home, I just want to get home, so I go faster, and on a whole, will average 2.6-2.7 on the overall commute (implying I'm getting 2.3-2.4 hightailing it home). I think average driving will make it very difficult to get close to 3mi/kwh.The definition of normal driving is what changes everythingI just did this trip minutes ago with a Gen1 Quad in All-purpose mode hitting 2.8mi/kWh. I don't see why a more efficient engine with a dual-motor

Gen 1 quad. ~2.3mi/kwh on my commute. I average about 77mph for about 12 miles, then 60mph for about 12 miles. Work pays for the electricity so I don't try to hypermile. 21" wheels.Yeah its how the average person drives the vehicle.

They have updated the range on shop vehicles and (IMO) more accurately reflect real world. The rim/tire size is a BIG deal. Tri Max is 42 miles difference between the 20s & 22. That is AP range according to Rivian CS. Conserve is 30 miles more (supposedly).Gen 1 quad. ~2.3mi/kwh on my commute. I average about 77mph for about 12 miles, then 60mph for about 12 miles.
