All these manufacturers collect tons of data. There is no reason range estimates can't be better.
My car just tracks the energy use over the last X kilometers and adapts the range accordingly. Of course it doesn't know if the next X kilometers will be all uphill or downhill so it's till just an estimate but it's definitely not exaggerating in a problematic way.
Mine too. I more mean that what is put on the sticker for sales. That should be an accurate average range for normal use.
Yes we can haggle over "normal use" but the bottom line is that the ranges advertised should be better representative of reality.
