Inundated with complaints, Tesla created "Diversion Team" to cancel appointments.

Tesla has consistently exaggerated the driving range of its electric vehicles, reportedly leading car owners to think something was broken when actual driving range was much lower than advertised. When these owners scheduled service appointments to fix the problem, Tesla canceled the appointments because there was no way to improve the actual distance Tesla cars could drive between charges, according to an investigation by Reuters.

    Not sure if you are making stuff up for the sake of it. But how you describe EV is nothing like the real world. Believe it how you want, but I will keep repeating (as an actual experience) that EV is a non-issue in this day and age.

    On longer trips (1.000km and more) it will take approx 10% more time. Which is a no brainer.

      Well, for me the difference between 10 and 11 hours would mean quite a drastic change. You are free to use an electric car if you like it but unless they cannot be charged just fast as gasoline cars can be filled, I won’t get one. Also, not every part of the world has enough tesla superchargers and not everyone can afford to get a car for the price of tesla. Most absurd is that tesla model X can cost literally more than Land Cruiser

        Yeah ok, but now you are moving the goalposts on the fly. As long ad we are not making stuff up on invalid assumptions that’s fine. I’m not saying everybody needs to buy an EV. Just if people are using the argument that it is not user friendly to not get one, that’s false.

        I can’t afford a ferrari either, doesn’t mean it’s a bad car.

        Ps. As mentioned 6 times or so already, i am talking about the EU (said so from the start)
