Oh, and there's zero chance Model 3 will have 500 mile range in 2021. You can't just wish away the existing battery chemistry limitations.
Well the i4 specs are not even close to the current model 3 specs. They are just taking a 3 series and sticking batteries where ever they find space instead of designing the car to be electric from the ground up

Put a 100kwh battery on the model 3 and you are at around 420miles

Maybe in 7-8 years they will catch up but by then who knows what Tesla will be doing
