But the example from the article wasn't about a sub 1% delta. It was someone getting less than half the estimated ranged.


For sure, I was using an extreme example for my anecdote(s) but also how many people get 50% of their estimated range? This specific example might be someone with a bad battery that tesla is trying to sweep under the rug BUT the article positions this as it's basically everyone.

"This 1 guy gets 50% of the estimated range and the problem is so wide spread tesla started a team to address it!"

is really different from

"Many customers are surprised they get less range than it says on the site and for a very extreme example, one guy gets 50% less (under uncertain circumstances)"
