There a nice reaction from Bjorn Nyland sharing his thought about this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYSOGCrAGAw

TLDR: Tesla's software is probably confusing and Tesla should have addressed the software issue instead of trying to bury it, but overall the article seems to be confused about a lot of things and the cars are still among the best, if not the best, on the range aspect.
