We all know there will be continual changes in the line-up. The 85 offers the same performance as the 70D but costs $5K more for 25 miles more range with no AWD, a terrible value. Even the 85D only offers 30 miles more range and a bit more acceleration for $10K more, not a terrific value. Unless the real world range numbers of the 70D come out lower than currently indicated, this sounds as an intermediate change, as big changes cannot be made without upsetting current owners or those who have already placed an order. Either more stuff will need to be included in the base 85 to put more value in it's cost (vs the 70D), or the 85 series soon becomes a 100 at about the same price.
