Angry Tesla customers sue firm over “grossly” exaggerated EV range.

Tesla is facing a class-action lawsuit filed by customers who say they were misled by the company's exaggerated range claims. The lawsuit was filed yesterday, days after a report revealed that Tesla exaggerated its electric vehicles' range so much that many drivers thought their cars were broken.

"Tesla marketed its electric vehicles as having a grossly overvalued range in an effort to increase sales to consumers," said the lawsuit filed in US District Court for the Northern District of California.

 this  issue might manifest more in cold area where battery power is less lasting.

Cold weather reduces EV range.

The best is room temperature
