In a sense, the reason why electric vehicles are called "electric daddies" is that the endurance is not good. Although the fast charging technology and power exchange technology are developing well, and the 800V high-voltage fast charging is also being put on the car, the problem of the shrinking endurance of electric vehicles cannot be solved for a long time.
Therefore, in order to "solve" the anxiety of endurance, virtual endurance has become a tacit matter in the industry. So Tesla also did this, when promoting the Tesla Model 3 on the South Korean official website, it said that it can travel more than 528 kilometers with a full charge.
However, after a survey by the Korean Fair Trade Commission (KFTC), the Tesla Model 3 cannot achieve the advertised endurance when the temperature is sub-zero. So the agency launched an investigation into Tesla, saying it exaggerated the battery performance of models sold in South Korea, allegedly violating South Korea's Fair Labeling and Advertising Act.
In addition, according to Korean media, Korean consumers need to pay a deposit of 100,000 won when ordering Tesla, which is equivalent to 531 yuan. However, after the cancellation of the order, the deposit will not be refunded to the consumer.
Officials at South Korea's KFTC said a meeting was underway to decide whether to punish Tesla for false publicity and consumer violations.
I am afraid that in order to be punished, Tesla, who is not afraid of heaven, has also begun to admit it. According to the latest news, Tesla revised the promotion on its South Korean official website, modifying the previous "single charge endurance of more than 528 kilometers" to "single charge endurance up to 528 kilometers".
On Tesla's official website in the United States, Tesla's endurance is also displayed in the form of range, such as the endurance of the standard version of the Model 3 with a range of 267-272 miles.
On Tesla's official website in China, Tesla has changed the range of the Model 3 model to the CLTC standard, so the rear-drive version of the model also has a range of 556 kilometers.
According to domestic consumers, although Tesla's endurance is stable, it cannot run to the official advertised mileage. In particular, the CLTC working conditions have become a standard that everyone shouts at more than the NEDC. However, there are more and more models of newly listed electric vehicles in China using CLTC, and the matter of flims is still emerging, do you think it is necessary to punish models with false endurance in China?
