Tesla don’t get to decide how they rate their mileage - they have to follow the EPA testing procedure. If they use any figure other than the EPA figure, they’ll be breaking the law.

The fact that the EPA testing procedure doesn’t match real-world conditions is the problem. And it’s not one Tesla can solve.

Sue the EPA then. I hate deception and honestly everyone should.
