About a decade ago, Tesla rigged the dashboard readouts in its electric cars to provide “rosy” projections of how far owners can drive before needing to recharge, a source told Reuters.
All of them … or at least most of them. The numbers given are based on limited variables and almost never include qualifiers like proper tire pressure must be maintained, easy acceleration vs flooring it, usage of AC, etc etc … which all affect fuel consumption rates.
It was a QX56 before they renamed it, but like that other guy said, it’s pretty much all of them as the car manufacturers are incentivized to give you the absolute best case usage scenarios for everything, and then slap that on a sticker as if it’s real world data.
Dang, which model?

Nobody should expect to reach fuel efficiency targets if they don’t even attempt to drive efficiently. Your other points stand though.

Oh wow, even their claimed mileage is terrible.
