If you know the true answer, but you give your customer a false answer to make your product look better than it is, there's a word for that. It's "fraud".
Counterpoint: Ive taken numerous road trips in both of our family's Tesla (Tesli?) as well as a couple loaners, and the built in navigation is always spot on with the estimates. Like it's eerie how it can predict within a percentage point on a 2 hour or more drive within the first 10 minutes of a trip.

Not sure why you're being down voted. This has been my experience as well.
The remaining battery estimate given at the beginning of the trip is fairly accurate.
