there’s a couple EVs that can go that far. I rented a Tesla Model Y Long Range, which cannot. I did not leave with a full charge and didn’t arrive with one either. You don’t need to.

I charged 3 times on the way up the coast, for 15, 10, and 20 minutes. The last one was was only longer because I ran into target to get something.

That’s… 9%.

What car takes an hour to charge?? I used to have a Chevy Bolt, the slowest charging EV you can buy. and it didn’t take an hour.

Go play around with A Better Route Planner if you want to see that assuming 3 hours of charging for an eight hour trip is ridiculous.
