I don’t know if these range estimates are comparable to U.S. ratings. Typically, the Euro range ratings have been significantly higher and well above what the vehicles are able to attain.
I was pretty shocked by this news, until I saw this paragraph in a CNBC article:
"Tesla’s far more popular models are the 3 and Y, which accounted for 97% of the company’s 1.59 million deliveries last year. The Model 3 now starts at about $37,000, and the Model Y is around $40,000. Tesla debuted more affordable versions of the vehicles late last year."

I did not realize that the Model S and Model X accounted for so few sales.
I remember Mark Fields several years before Mercury was axed saying it was going to be a brand for people who purchased iPods as if it was some kind of subcultural phenomenon. lol
