环境保护署否认了特斯拉首席执行官埃隆·马斯克的说法，即该署在测试s型轿车时犯了一个错误，导致了比马斯克认为应得的更低的射程。

在本周的财报电话会议中，Musk声称特斯拉模型的远程应该是第一个电动汽车行驶400英里的范围，EPA 391英里的评级是一个混乱的结果。马斯克说，有人一夜之间把钥匙留在车里，车门开着，导致S型车进入“等待司机”模式，耗尽了车辆2%的电池。这导致了略低于400英里的射程。

环保局说，不是这样。环保署发言人在一份即将发表的声明中说：“我们可以确认，环保署对汽车进行了正确的测试，车门关闭，我们很高兴与特斯拉讨论任何技术问题，就像我们与所有汽车**商一样。”。

以下是Musk在财报电话会议上所说的话：

On other technology fronts, we increased the range of model S and X yet again, this time to 391 miles for Model S and 351 miles for Model X. Actually, we said that, actually, the model — the real Model S range is 400 miles, but when we did the last EPA test, unfortunately, [EPA] left the car door open and the keys in the car, so the car - and it did this overnight.

And so the car actually went into waiting for driver mode and lost 2% of its range. And as a result, it had a 391 test. As soon as the EPA reopens for testing, we will redo the test, and we’re actually confident that we will achieve a 400-mile-or-greater range with the Model S. But to be clear, the Model S, for the past two months — the true range of the Model S for the past two months has been 400 miles.

特斯拉发言人没有立即回应置评请求。
