Is that an AWD Tesla with chains on the back?
Almost all AWD/4WD with independent front suspension can only be chained in the back, due to clearance with the front strut. Maybe ultra-low profile cable chains would fit in the front, but those aren't really effective.
Only my live front axles trucks can fit bulky chains up front.
Judging by the BMW i3's performance with range extender, even if we could charge an EV on the move, it'll take at least a 15 - 20 kW generator to propel a Model X safely at highway speeds.
Lifetime average kWh / distance doesn't factor short term elevated averages over mountain terrain.
