Basically every other EV tries to give a realistic range based on the temperate and your driving habits.

Teslas appear to always show the EPA range at full and it sounds like they stay very optimistic for quite a long time, giving drivers a very unrealistic picture.

That’s lying to the customer. They’re not trying to be useful but to look good.

And in every EV range comparison I’ve ever seen, teslas are the ones that can’t meet their claimed range by a fair margin. Other brands are almost always close to accurate or in some cases do noticeably better than claimed.

Only Tesla does this.
