Instead of 215, the Tesla Model 3 should say "215+ (unofficial)" as it was announced to have "at least 215 miles". --Pmsyyz (talk) 08:39, 16 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

Agree, the finite mark of the bar is misleading. The bar should be ghosted to show that it is unofficial, and the end of the bar should be open, slanted or "sprayed" to show that it is not determined.

This diagram combines range and price to give a very useful overview of the EV market (source). We should do the same; we have the data. TGCP (talk) 09:40, 8 October 2016 (UTC)Reply

The range shown is the one reported by Tesla Motors. All American carmakers, and foreign manufacturers selling in volume in the U.S. report expected performance as per EPA cycle. When the official range is published the graph will be adjusted accordingly. Cheers.--Mariordo (talk) 15:26, 9 October 2016 (UTC)Reply
The finite range shown is not conveying what Tesla is saying: that the range may be higher than 215. See https://i.imgsafe.org/7e54520374.png for an example; notice that the bar end has no camber like the others. "Unofficial" or "minimum" are two suggestions for additions so far. Also, the bar could be gray to show its preliminary status. TGCP (talk) 21:36, 19 October 2016 (UTC)Reply
I will correct both graphs with the Model 3 as suggested. I will upload the new versions today before the end of the day.--Mariordo (talk) 12:46, 21 October 2016 (UTC)Reply
