EV motor power output has basically zero impact on efficiency.
The difference has to be in the battery side of the equation. It's gonna be bigger than the Roadster, so it'll need a bigger (at least in terms of capacity) battery than the Roadster has.
This suggests that a future Roadster model will have either longer range or less weight as the higher-capacity battery tech moves there.
