Obviously, the key word in my title is choice. Many of you will have made a different choice, and that is great.
I think the 85D/85 is, in many ways, the finest choice for many buyers.
But I would like to hear some of your thoughts about how the 85D (or 85 when you don't need AWD) is often the best choice.
Now there is no doubt that in the media and on this forum that the P85D (and the older choice of P85+) is the darling and king of the hill. But I would like this thread to go a different direction, that is, functionality with speed in a great EV.
The 85D is the longest range for all Teslas (295 mi on the TMC website).
The 85D is super-fast (if you don't believe that, drive one and stomp on the "gas").
The 85D is significantly less expensive than the P85D.
The 85D is significantly better than the 60 for range, and comes with SuperCharger access.
Tires last longer on the 85D than the P85D.
Let me say the two most important again: Costs significantly less than the P85D for nearly the same car and has the longest range.
Thoughts?
