You nailed it!

I calculated the energy density (kwh/kg) of a 2008 tesla roadster battery, and it wasn't appreciably different than the battery in the current model 3. Yes 1000+lbs of battery distributed on the bottom of the car is different than throughout, but it's no doubt a damper on making a driver oriented car. I can't find anything saying this will change anytime soon.
