I think it’s a combination of aero and pack design advances.
Notice they have a not insignificant kWh capacity for a pack of similar weight.
Add in vehicle styling prioritizing aero over some preconceived notion of what
a specific model should look like *cough*mustang*cough* and it adds in to more
miles.

Thoughts on what it is that is making the Teslas go so much further based on
weight of batteries? Is it a) battery technology, b) otherwise
light-weighting of the rest of the car, or c) something else?
(Plus would be nice to know the 82 kWh battery pack size for Teslas)
