They can advertise 1000km...

But when the potential buyer test drive the car, he would have noticed the range is 500km or something. It should be clearly reflected either in KM or %.

If he still decided to go ahead, then it's on him.

Can sue? or another toothless tiger like ahem..

If not suck thumb, do more due diligence before purchasing..

Getting a good old flower eye spec is good for reading fine prints these days..

They will say it's the variables, the sun, the wind, the road conditions, the temperature and driving pattern all plays a part. End up blame every other thing but never blame themselves for over promising

Many ICE car also boast fuel consumption good

Some will say theirs can 1 tank from Singapore to KL then come back Singapore

All alibaba one lo

So far personally i feel Toyota their claim possible mileage of the car is the most accurate one.

I think 13l/km is achievable provided no traffic light and light pedaling. I ever achieved this in NS highway .
