yes, even Tesla’s “supercharger” network is a desert compared to the ubiquity of gas stations—and it takes an hour, even in the best circumstances.

Quick charging, is unfortunately also a function of battery size, so you can’t offset the lower range of a smaller battery by charging it faster.

You can’t answer this question without also knowing recharge rate.

This doesn’t sound right. 3 hours of charging to add <400 miles of range to a Model 3 LR?

Ha, this is exactly what I was thinking.

For cars that come with a 240V plug (new Bolt, Tesla, Leaf), you may be able to get a dryer-type outlet installed for as little as $250 and you’re done.

I think it works sort like the iPhone hype. Yes, your Samsung, Pixel (insert any non-iPhone device here) can do everything that one can, but then you loose iMessage, Facetime and other iPhone exclusives. Yes, you can use lots of alternative, some of those arguably better and/or more popular, but then you don’t have

The model 3 is lozenge shaped. I’d rather have hatch.

There’s also no Chevy Supercharging network. That’s a big big deal, at least currently.

Im sure the bolt is every bit the car that the Tesla is, probably more.

And this could be one of the first true Tesla challenges on American soil, in terms of capability, price, and range

The purpose was to look at how much extra electricity was used to charge EVs, from which point researchers extrapolated on how many miles these EV owners were driving.

The rental Q5 I had was trash (just like the base X2 I drove) because they’re both not enough bigger or more premium than a GTI for me to justify paying way more for one... and drive worse.

it’s the only EV that C&D has been able to get a LL out of at full power.

The house across the street from my new place has 102 panels in their side yard. 102... That seems excessive?

That’s a HUGE commitment. How much is this hookup fee? And can they change it to whatever when they feel like it?

We have a “Gen 4" that came with the dumb eyes for the cowl.

And lets make it out of plastic even though it sits right next to the exhaust manifold, too.

Agreed. I actually crossed over like that a few times when I owned it, and it’s... nice. There’s definitely something generally “relaxing?” for lack of a better term about a car that feels airy and not claustrophobic.

The latest tesla lacks the computing power to do fsd.
