That's (potentially) consistent with the idea that the front motor is geared longer than the rear motor. If so, even if the two motors are putting out the same overall total power as the single motor in the P+, the effective total gear ratio for that power would be taller, which would show benefits the faster you went.
The initial jump off the line might theoretically be worse in that scenario, except that we know that the P+ is heavily traction limited at low speeds. Giving away some theoretical low end pull for double the traction is a good trade.
Maybe. Using the chart I was given, here:

It looks like the P85 is down to about 200 kW of output by 116 mph, meaning that a theoretical car that had enough motor headspace and suitable gearing to use the full battery output could possibly have 50% more power at that speed.
Without knowing more about how the chart was developed and what drives the car's limitations, I'm not sure how realistic that is for the D, but it's a big enough number that it could perhaps explain the observed performance, maybe.
A lighter ICE car is using 550 rated horsepower (~410 kW) to achieve slightly worse performance (but of course they can only hit the peak output momentarily here and there, and electrics are always faster for the same power rating due to the broader curves.)
(Either way, the data means that the car is showing substantially improved performance at high speeds, not merely 0-30, which is all I was trying to point out in the post above. )
