About a decade ago, Tesla rigged the dashboard readouts in its electric cars to provide “rosy” projections of how far owners can drive before needing to recharge, a source told Reuters. The automaker last year became so inundated with driving-range complaints that it created a special team to cancel owners’ service appointments.
Alright, I get it when people don’t care that Twitter changed its brand name or whatever, but are we going to ignore reports about electric cars that don’t work as advertised and the company trying to cover it up, just because we keep hearing a lot about the CEO?
News shouldn’t be treated as fads, not even by people who think they are overplayed.
