No. I'm talking about the EPA (USA) rating of the e-Tron vs other cars. EPA ratings for EVs are generally pretty accurate vs real world range, although in the real world a lot depends on driving style and weather etc.

As I said, I have no idea what's going on in the US, but I know 2 facts:

- service providers are allowed to lie on how much a service contract will actually cost, adding/changing extra fees that were never mentioned

- Boeing of the MAX fame was allowed to self certify

One could extrapolate from there...
