I don’t recall seeing this posted. I am assuming this is the same power specs on the Pro AWD.

I know Tesla has the same setup as the ASM can freewheel so it can disengage when not needed - I am assuming for the same reason.

ASM is cheaper to make, lighter ( contains no magnets) but is less efficient.
