2 Long Range Single Motor vs Model 3 Long Range RWD

01The cut

2 Long Range Single Motor and Model 3 Long Range RWD split the numbers that move a decision. You would not notice RRP, After grant and UK grant.

A win is counted only where the gap is one you would notice, and only where two independent hosts agree on the figure. One-source numbers still print. Missing figures stay blank. We do not invent a score.
