What blows my mind is the energy estimate buried in the menus shows a reasonably accurate expected range based on driving behavior and conditions, and instead of using that value at the top level we get some basic kW-> miles conversion that means jack shit.
My first EV, a Chevy Bolt, had this nailed. It gave you an estimated range, and a min and max range if you drive carefully or recklessly. It was great! Tesla could absolutely do better here, but just doesn't want to show bad numbers.
