    That’s mostly Tesla. Most traditional OEMs are putting larger packs and single motor for longer range and dual for better performance. In both cases compromises are made; dual motor tends to decrease range but better in snow, off road, etc; single motor offers less performance but longer range. The easier route with battery constraints is to put out a single motor low performance model then offer dual motor. Perfect example is the Cadillac Lyric. Vinfast chose to only start with Dual motor for the broadest of applications (also bad road infrastucture in Vietnam) though it will sacrifice range. It’s a business decision and I can respect them giving what their local market wants.
