Q: Does wheel alignment affect Tesla range?

It can. Toe error increases rolling resistance, so the car uses more energy to cover the same distance. Because Teslas are heavier than comparable combustion vehicles and regenerative braking shifts weight to the front axle on every deceleration, misalignment has a more pronounced effect on efficiency, tire wear, and steering feel than it would on a lighter car.
