    Counter counter point: if the Tesla is doing fraud with the range estimate there is no need to estimate anything that precisely. Just make the software show the same number as guessed when you arrive let’s say you end up with 86 km left as “estimated” at the end of the trip but in reality it’s more like 42 km and the Tesla just shows something else.

      The gauge shows epa range available given battery SoC. Once a destination is entered it gives you an accurate estimate in the gps directions.

      I can’t guess anything until it knows where you’re going.
