Tesla deemed as the worst warranty deal in Norway

[ChrML]

Now and then, some journalist sum it up as "Tesla does not provide ANY capacity warranty, if a new car runs 10km on a charge, that's ok"

That is not true. Because the car has to function for the use the car is advertised for. If the car only can get 10 km on a charge, then it clearly does not function as a car anymore, and thus have to be fixed.

Also there is a difference between defective cells and degradation. A defective cell is a fault that should be fixed. But a degraded cell is normal wear (although this is not really a problem on Tesla).

Just the way Norway manages their economy should be a hint all is not right in Denmark across the water.

I am down 20 miles range on a 2013 S with 90k mikes on it. That's 7.5% loss in almost 5 years, so I'd call that much better than 30% loss in 5 years or is my math off?

warning, off topic, disturbing - no comments expected, perhaps best you don't...

...Tesla could win this test anytime...

You asked for it, and you almost got it!

Tesla would match 70% battery capacity guarantee for Model 3 only.

Tesla releases Model 3 warranty with new 70% battery capacity retention guarantee

That means unlike Model S/X scenarios above, for Model 3, if there's a bad cell or module but the capacity as a whole is still 70% or more, Tesla won't fix yours!
