All these manufacturers collect tons of data. There is no reason range estimates can't be better.

My car just tracks the energy use over the last X kilometers and adapts the range accordingly. Of course it doesn't know if the next X kilometers will be all uphill or downhill so it's till just an estimate but it's definitely not exaggerating in a problematic way.

Yes we can haggle over "normal use" but the bottom line is that the ranges advertised should be better representative of reality.
