Tesla has long been accused of being, um, “overly optimistic” about its EVs’ range estimates. Now, the automaker has quietly reduced its advertised range estimates, with some falling by significant amounts. The Model Y, Model S, and Model X got range cuts. The Model 3 and Cybertruck did not see changes.
