This motor is well more than twice as powerful as the Model 3 motor, so it could eliminate the entire weight of the second motor in the higher performance models. That’s 146kg, the weight of two adults, an 11% reduction.

As pointed out elsewhere, this neglects AWD which is an important part of the dual motor models' value proposition.
