Korea's antitrust watchdog said Tesla failed to inform customers that its EVs offer shorter driving range in cold temperatures.
During summer months, the R1T noticeably exceeds its EPA range rating.
The 60 kWh battery version of the car achieved a higher range than its WLTP rating at a speed of 90 km/h (56 mph).
The maximum EPA-estimated rating is for the 2023 Rivian R1T Quad-Motor with the Large battery pack and 21-inch wheels.
According to the test, it might lose around 40% of range when towing.
One huge advantage of EVs is being able to upgrade performance, efficiency, and range via a free over-the-air software update.
At -4°C the driving range might be around one-fifth lower than at 10°C.
This may come as no surprise since Tesla only produces EVs, but imagine if all automakers quickly followed suit.
The Mokka Electric now features a new 54 kWh battery pack than enables it to cover 252 miles (406 kilometers) on the WLTP cycle.
Comprehensive analysis reveals sales trends, battery degradation, confusing range ratings and more.
