I want one(!)
'Hows the Serenity' of the interior(?)
That could be an Alcantara topped dash....dreamin' again.
These can NOT be going to CRASH TEST with all that plastic on seats.
Still don't see how tyres are inflated. Surely you don't have to remove Aeros.
And one more thing, you gotta love a photo of a CT with a mini CT

Why smash a quad version? :D

But I guess thats wrong, all models will need to be crash tested

as the OP on Reddit answered, he checked behind the wheels and spotted a motor behind both axels. That's why it should be dual motor

Ok cool. I think on the MS/X there are two motors in a single (though oddly shaped) housing. Do you think it is possible that this could have been a tri-motor? I haven’t ever looked that closely at either of these, so I have not idea.

It’s probably not that difficult to tell if it’s a dual or tri-motor. I’m sure it’s a dual, my man didn’t miss a whole motor. They’re literally identical.

Although both scenarios are equally likely, i am leaning towards your man missing a motor. Cant be sure without a teardown, and your man's not likely to be a mechanical engineer..

Pop quiz: how many motors in this Tesla drivetrain?

I think it's fairly obvious from the photos, but a casual inspection of a covered underside may not be determinative.

If the front wheels have driveshafts then there's obviously at least 2 motors, but it may be difficult to tell if an axle has 1 motor or two.

not if Tesla is going to predominately produce more not dual motor variants
too many unknowns at the moment, that's why to me it's a tossup . + we don't know what this was used for exactly, let alone what trim would be best for that application.
