Did you forget the whole diesel emissions scandal? A ridiculous amount of car manufacturers were caught after it turns out they were lying on the tests for years at that point.

That's different. They were not just lying, they were cheating. If they had given them the wrong emission values in the first place they would not have been allowed to sell their cars in the EU.

Semantic difference, surely? Tesla's advertised range is also rarely the actual range, so there's likely some fuckery going on there too.
