As with all electric vehicles, I need to know how far it will go at night, in a snowstorm, at 20 below zero, with lights, heat, defrost, wipers, etc. running full blast.
Of course, I also need to know how far it will go between charges in 105 degree heat, with air conditioning running.
Now, add a Travel Trailer with a GVW of 10,750 lbs. to the mix, plus 5 190 pound people and a couple hundred pounds of tools and miscellaneous.
NOW how far will it go on a full charge, and how long weill it take to fully re-charge it?
It is always easy to brag about how wonderful something is under ideal conditions, but what about in the real world where we all live, where the conditions are often (if not usually) less than ideal?
This is how Tesla car handles winter..
