These vehicles lack the performance-oriented "P" designation, which means their range goes up a bit. Instead of the P100D's 315-mile range, the P-free Model S sports a range of 335 miles.

Removing the performance credential also confers a second benefit: a lower price tag. Whereas the Model S P100D costs $137,800 before any incentives according to Tesla's site, the 100D brings the price down to $92,500 at the time this was written. The Model X P100D goes for $138,800, while the 100D commands just $98,500.

That is still too expensive for wide spread adoption.
