I'd say that clicking through to a tiny and clear press statement should prevent any misunderstanding here.. People that just read the headline ... are misinformed most of the time anyway.
- jlarocco 12y agoThe "article" is a press release from Tesla, and more or less an advertisement. If we're going to have Tesla ads on the front page, they can at least be realistic. "Infinite mile" implies forever. 8 years, not so much.
- readerrrr 12y agoWhat is a more perfect word for no-limit, especially when dealing with distances, than infinite. Infinite mile, which is discussing distance, does not imply something time related.
- makomk 12y agoFrom what I recall, other companies call this kind of warranty an "X year, unlimited mileage" warranty. "Infinite miles" is just some marketing bullshit Tesla have come up with to make it sound like they're offering something new and different and more generous.

- mynameisvlad 12y agoI mean, unlimited or infinite basically have the exact same meaning. I don't see what's wrong with "infinite". It's completely correct.
- enraged_camel 12y ago>>"Infinite mile" implies forever. No, it doesn't imply that in this context. Car warranties are sold as, "X years, Y miles". So "infinite miles" simply says Y = Infinite. It doesn't say anything about X.
