    Several hackers have seen stuff hidden in code pointing to a possible 100kWh battery pack in the 3 and presumably Y. This would mean well over 400 miles for both vehicles. If true it would likely mean a more battery dense composition.
    If this is announced at Battery Day then a 400+ mile range Model Y will 100% be our next vehicle.

    if this is the 1 million mile battery, what a one two punch!

    Owner Jason - back in the Carolinas was the one who found the 100 KW message inside the Model S, & Tesla (OTA) derated his software for his efforts ... only he'd already made a back up copy of it. It's good to understand how Tesla shenanigans roll.

    Yup, I try not to link to their stuff because of their usual clickbait. But I do read their articles every once in a while if it's clearly news and not clickbait.

    Update: Elon said on Twitter nothing was planned as far as bigger battery pack sizes for the 3 or Y.
