Tesla Pegs Lowered Range Estimates To 'Comfort And Functionality Improvements' And EPA's Guidance Tweak
EV giant Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) is attributing the lowered range estimate on some of its vehicles to several improvements, coupled with the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) updated range testing guidance.
電動汽車巨頭特斯拉公司（納斯達克股票代碼：TSLA）將其部分車輛的續航里程估計值降低歸因於幾項改進，以及環境保護署（EPA）更新的續航里程測試指南。
What Happened: In an email to customers who ordered specific vehicles, Tesla explained the reduced range estimate as a result of "several comfort and functionality improvements."
發生了什麼：在給訂購特定車輛的客戶的電子郵件中，特斯拉解釋了由於 “多項舒適性和功能改進” 導致的續航里程縮短。
According to Tesla, these changes will require more energy from the battery packs.
根據特斯拉的說法，這些變化將需要來自電池組的更多能量。
BREAKING: Tesla is asking customers with pending Model X orders to update their configurations by January 10th, as the model they initially ordered is no longer being produced. Failure to reconfigure will result in order cancellation.

Additionally, Tesla stated that the EPA has updated its range testing guidance to reflect real-world range more accurately, without specifying the extent to which the new guidance contributed to the lowered estimate.
此外，特斯拉表示，美國環保局已經更新了其續航里程測試指南，以更準確地反映現實世界的續航里程，但沒有具體說明新指南在多大程度上導致了估計值的降低。
The company noted that this change in EPA guidance would also impact other automakers.
該公司指出，美國環保局指導方針的這一變化也將影響其他汽車製造商。
"The EPA also updated their range testing guidance to ensure sticker estimates for all manufacturers more closely reflect real-world range, impacting previous range estimates for all manufacturers, not just Tesla," the company's mail read.
該公司的郵件中寫道：“美國環保局還更新了續航里程測試指南，以確保所有制造商的標價估算值更接近實際範圍，這會影響所有制造商先前的續航里程估算，而不僅僅是特斯拉。”
Why It Matters: The adjusted range estimates affect select variants of Model S, X, and Y.
爲何重要：調整後的範圍估計值會影響模型 S、X 和 Y 的選定變體。
Notably, the range for certain Model S and X variants has decreased by up to 37 miles, while higher-end versions of the Model Y have experienced a nearly 20-mile reduction.
值得注意的是，某些Model S和X變體的續航里程減少了多達37英里，而Model Y的高端版本的續航里程縮短了近20英里。
Tesla urged customers who ordered these vehicles to update their orders by Jan. 10 to maintain their orders.
特斯拉敦促訂購這些車輛的客戶在1月10日之前更新訂單，以維持訂單。
