How about attention? Yet another positive article won't do it, so...
Pretty much what Elon said in the Fox Business interview. "...More clicks.."

How about attention? Yet another positive article won't do it, so...

[UPDATE: As of 9:45 am Thursday, it appears that The New York Times is preparing a response to the Tesla post. What form that will take--whether it's merely an update to Broder's Tuesday blog post, or something more substantial--remains to be seen.]
Can you expound on this?
Then can you briefly state your case?
It appears at the 400 that there is a 90 to 20 drop.
I read that too and I am eagerly awaiting the response.
And within two decades, consumers will understand that driving electric cars is a better experience than exploding air mixed with refined dead dinosaurs in increasingly complex engines.
Look at both the state-of charge chart, and the rated-range chart. The first is surely more the actual charge (not visible in the UI), while the second is the display value for rated range.

How can someone be so stupid to assume he can get away with this? In an "iPad on wheels"? This was a great opportunity for Tesla to demonstrate how detailed their logs are. Revealing this information in this particular context doesn't leave a lot of room for critical voices (privacy concerns, trust in customers and journalists, etc.), and at the same time I'm pretty sure it won't happen again. By now, even the dumbest of journalists will have understood that you'd better not twist facts when it comes to Tesla's cars...
Hard to argue with hard data. But that said, I think Tesla needs to consider the spacing between its Superchargers in cold climates. If they were located at 140 mile intervals, speed and cabin heat wouldn't matter.
NOTE: If you use the touchscreen to release the parking brake when in P (Park), Model S automatically shifts into Neutral. However, when you exit Model S, it shifts into Park. To keep Model S in Neutral after exiting, power off Model S manually using the touchscreen.
"One, the range was already at zero miles. Two, I was circling the parking lot in the service plaza looking for the unmarked and unlighted Supercharger port in the dark. I was not trying to drain the battery." He promised "a detailed rebuttal" soon on the Times' Wheels blog.
"As we have said previously, our story was fair and accurate," added Timesspokesperson Eileen Murphy. "We plan to post a more detailed response to Tesla's latest assertions after we have had an opportunity to review them in detail."
Hey VFX,
If you look at the graph just above the one you linked, you will see that at 400 miles the SOC went from about 35 to 30 (ish).

I think he was bought by big oil, (DOH) or The NYT was? Let's check bank accounts?I have a lot less credibility in any of Broder's articles; unless he lied for a reason. Maybe this was an attempt to make Tesla reveal what can be logged and tracked by the Model S. There must be a good reason why Broder would write such an article in the first place.
