    You haven’t read the article then, you just took the sentence that fitted your point. At the end there is an update saying that Tesla did in fact confirm it was the same battery pack that was software locked.

      Mmk well that was added later. Regardless their source is Tesla “advisors” who are notorious for talking out of their ass.

      After seeing that Tesla is listing the new versions as having the same weight as the Long Range for both Model S and Model X, we have reached out to Tesla Centers to ask, and Tesla advisors were able to confirm that the new Standard Range Model S and Model X are indeed software-locked Long Range vehicles.
