Tesla sued for false advertising after allegedly exaggerating EV ranges
I rented a Hyundai Ioniq5 and them a Model X while visiting family on two separate visits, two weeks apart.<p>The Model X was a 2017 model, but I cannot believe the level of deterioration on the battery.  I was barely able to do 200 km on a 90% charge (I didn&#x27;t do a full charge to
avoid damaging the battery)<p>It was awful; Montreal to Ottawa doesn&#x27;t require a stop in a similar sized gas car, but I had to stop twice to keep the car charged (after leaving with a 90% charge, in the chill accel mode).<p>Going to Mt. Tremblant from Montreal was a similar experience; charged it from 60 to 90%ish at St. Jerome and seeing the battery dip to the 50s by the time I arrived.<p>The Ioniq, by contrast, was great (albeit new).  I hesitate to directly compare as the Ioniq was used for city driving, but the range was always clear and in the 400-500km range.<p>My assumption is that the Model X had its battery abused, but the rental agency&#x27;s rep told me that all Teslas vastly over exaggerate their range; apparently they only get 150km in winter.<p>I can see the value of a 150km electric car, but not for more than $100k.
