Hello and welcome to the Monday February 17th 2020 edition of Tesla Daily on

official Tesla Podcast. My name is Rob Maower and somehow we are already

now halfway through officially through the first quarter of 2020. And we have some exciting news to talk

about today, specifically on the range increases for model S and model X.

We also have news on model 3, some news from GM and Renault, and a couple other stories as well.

Let's start off with model S and model X.

I'm sure most people by now have heard of the range increases, so'll go through that pretty quickly and then I think there are a couple underappreciated elements of this that I also want to discuss.

First up is model S. Tesla has increased the

estimated range on the model S from 373 miles or 600 kilometers before to 390 miles or 628 kilometers now.

So that's a 4.5% increase and for model X, the range is increased from an estimated

328 miles or 528 kilometers.

Two, 351 miles or 565 kilometers,

a 7% increase for the model X again versus that model S increase of 4.5% a variance that I haven't actually seen getting that much attention but I think one that is pretty interesting that's a pretty big discrepancy between model S and model X in terms of the

percent increase. The other thing that is kind of interesting is that on the

model X design page under range it says EPA estimated and on the model S

design page it actually just says estimated without

including that EPA specification. It probably doesn't mean anything but taken in

combination with the larger percent increase in range for X versus S, I do wonder if

Tesla may still be understating the range on model S. Now looking at the

model 3 and model Y design pages to see if that gives us any insight. They don't

really help. The model three

doesn't actually have anything listed there. It doesn't say EPA estimate or
