"automotive testers and regulators continue to flag the company for exaggerating the distance its vehicles can travel before their batteries run out." - from the article.

EPA required Tesla to reduce advertised range by 3%, when in reality the number is often 25% lower, or according the S.Korean regulator, 50% lower in cold temps.

~$2.2m fine in S.Korea and no fine from what I could see in the US.

Shitty company breaks law to boost profit because the benefits way outweigh any risk. Truly a story we've never heard before.
