As maligned as Elon has been lately, I am willing to believe that this isn’t a lie:
it’s totally reasonable to assume that Tesla would monitor logs of test vehicles
Elon’s description of the issue is specific and detailed
the EPA’s rebuttal is a “nuh-uh, we did it right”
I think tesla has the data and confidence to sling around. This wouldn’t happen if they thought the S wasn’t genuinely above 400mi range.

Yeah, that seems like all this article is. It seems like both the epa and Tesla have handled this issue well so far. EPA did the test with their proper procedures reportedly, Tesla contests the results, and they retest once they can.

Also, maybe Tesla could update their software to not run the battery down so much in this scenario.
