I think the difference is that a gas-powered car will keep driving when the gas indicator hits zero. You can still get a couple dozen miles at that points, and those are so important. Tesla is really doing you a disservice by not considering that.

Supposedly you can get some range with the Tesla at zero - it’s just a bad idea to do that.

It’s a bad idea in a gas car too, my friends that have run out of gas did so because of driving on E.

Though at least with gas it’s easier to bring it to the car.
