CT2 vs Lightning ER battery

[Alpine]

Canceled my June Lightning build and purchased a 22 Sienna hybrid. Will wait for my CT3. Can you guys in the know comment on battery performance of CT2 vs Lightning ER. Same advertised range, though ER now certified for 320 mile. Below is actual window stickers, does the mpge look way too low?

I’m sure the MPGe is accurate. Tesla excels at efficiency.

We don't know what the MPGe will be, but yes, the Lightning was highly likely to have a larger battery to make up for its higher road inefficiency.

Comparable MPGe to the Quad motor Rivian.

The R1T is one of the first electric pickup trucks to receive a fuel economy rating from the EPA. Fuel economy ratings for the quad-motor R1T are 74 MPGe city, 66 MPGe highway, and 70 MPGe combined.

Yep.

I don't quite understand why the mid-range and short-range Lightnings get worse efficiency, though.

Pretty cool video of Rivian drag racing other pick-ups with one interesting twist.
