How does dual motor interact with delivery estimate?

[kirkbauer]

I'm a MS owner but am asking for my mother, who has a reservation for a M3.

Her delivery estimate now says "late 2018" and the dual-motor version says "late 2018". Does that mean she might be able to use her reservation to get a dual-motor Model 3 in late 2018?

I know a lot of it is speculation at this point but I'm hoping somebody has an educated guess.

Most likely she will be able to order a dual motor Model 3 when she gets her configuration email because the dual motor is scheduled to become available in "Mid 2018". I can't think of why she wouldn't be able to order one unless they run into some supply constraint on the dual motor. Just remember that all dates are "Elon Time."
