They did. Have a look at the spreadsheet from the report. The Tesla Model 3 Long Range has a Green Score of 64. Not sure where they pulled the chart from in the NYT article, but it would still fall at 11; just off the list. The actual data if sorted by "Green Score" (tried to look up the scoring methodology but the website is down: https://greenercars.org/news/2024-methodology-update https://greenercars.org/news/2024-methodology-update) looks like this before you hit the first Tesla (when removing duplicates and similar models).

- LUmBULtERA 3y agoThanks! Interesting. Yeah, when I clicked to look into what was going on it seemed the website was down for me too. Whatever the methodology, it must not have to be efficiency, because "2021 Tesla Model 3 Standard Range Plus RWD" tops everything according to Fueleconomy.gov. Makes me wonder how something like the BZ4X scored higher.
- gpapilion 3y agoThanks for the sheet this was super enlightening. I was comparing my pacifica phev with my polestar, and the pacfica has a green score of 57, vs 53 for the polestar. This really seems like a methodology issue likely related to hours of operation vs miles driven.
