It seems like it's an issue with manufacturing consistency/quality. The report said some cars were getting literally half their advertised range on daily commutes. That's not an amount that could be accounted for by driving styles.

The original Reuters report linked below: https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/tesla-batteries-range/
