Maybe this will inspire the law. We can call it the "stop Tesla lying act"
Although to be fair, my 2012 Kia Hybrid also grossly over estimates it's MPG. So much so that I also thought something was wrong with it when I first bought it, so it's not just Tesla. MPG and range absolutely need some strict regulation on it with some real teeth if companies get caught gaming the system.
