When I bought my 2022 MYP it was rated at 303 miles, a couple of months ago I recall it being lowered to 285, today I see it's now down to 279. Am I mistaken?

So I assume all these "adjustments" apply to my 2022?Yes, the 2024 was updated to 279. All 2024 MYP cars were held in limbo until this was competed just last month. It was a painful wait.
No, they do not.So I assume all these "adjustments" apply to my 2022?
Is there more to this answer? Officially and within the car guess-o-meter they don’t. But surely the batteries didn’t shrink (or did they?) nor did the drivetrain become more inefficient, so what should a 2022 MYP owner make of this 2024 MYP EPA range delta?No, they do not.

Worst-case latching mode per EPA guidance is probably worse than how Tesla tested the car before. I actually have't gone through and come up with a reasonable hypothesis for exactly why this guidance reduced Tesla's numbers. But somehow they had to configure the car in a less efficient mode for the testing results. Resulting in lower numbers.But surely the batteries didn’t shrink (or did they?)
The government has always done spot check tests. They continue to do so. Manufacturers continue to to the vast majority of the testing, of course.Now, with the government doing actual tests on range,
I am not aware of any changes to oversight. What are you referring to?The oversight wasn't great before, so Tesla could get away with it. But not so much now. Is what I'm saying.
You shouldn't post falsehoods.But it's an unpopular truth.
Significantly, not slightly.Most of the manufacturers under-report their range, just slightly
The government allowed mathematical calculations, instead of actual testing, as well, which led to more shenanigans by Tesla.
You are getting this information incorrect and backward here.Just do even a modicum of research on the way Tesla calculated their range in years past...the key word being 'calculated, and the truth becomes obvious.
