Normally the gasser would do the one way leg and then I gas up and do a return trip (one 5 min stop saves a lot more time). I believe I had to make 7 or 8 stops of 20 mins or so I was able to do the drive in a little over 24h in the end. I was super lucky that the chargers were not clogged!!!!īut I did the cannonball run method of 5% to 60% SoC runs where I charge up every 100 miles driven for 15 mins and I manually planned my route to use v3 chargers only. Thats fair, last xmas for shits and giggles I did a 750 mile drive in my 2018 P3D+ round trip in 24h just because I had some time to kill so I didn't use the ICE. That is on my 310 epa rates car (ABRP also said I need to stop twice for this same route I do in my BMW without breaking a sweat in 4h worst case). But it took me 6h and 5mins to drive this distance which means my average speed for the entire continuous drive session was 48mph. The only way I was ever able to make range in my Tesla was in covid lock down of April 2020 I was able to do 296.6 miles on a single charge doing 95% to 8% in ideal conditions with everything set to off manually.
#TESLA INVENTORY METHOD FULL#
Where as my BMW can gas up in 5 mins and do an actual 450 miles at 80 mph and in a fully loaded car with the heater running full blast! The issue is my Tesla requires me to stop and supercharge every 100 driven miles and I must roll into a charger at about 10% SoC or so while preconditioning it and leave the charger by 60% SoC to be able to do a normal driving day. This has been the case for my entire ownership of the car and my gas tank has never degraded over the ownership of my BMW). 200 miles / 28.7 mpg average = 7 gallons x $4.60 = $32.20 (I say 28.7 mpg as the average because I can get a consistent 33.5 mpg hand calc when I drive only freeway 80 mph. My local gas prices from premium is about $4.60 a gallon. so my actual cost to do 200 miles is 67 x. So if I used my 60 kwh of range in the cards, it will take me 67 kwh to get back to 95% SoC after the drive.
My local super charger is about 48 cents per kwh and it generally requires about 10% more be put back in to reach my starting SoC. Compared to the Tesla which can do at most 200 physically driven miles at or below the speed limit of 65 mph with TACC/EAP used going from 95% to 2% and using 59.9 kwh as based on the trip cards in the Spring/summer time with no HVAC and No cargo, in chill mode, and all electric consumers manually set to off (for a purpose range test so I make sure my CURRENT DRIVE card matches my SINCE LAST CHARGED card over the entire 59.9 kwh used). The biggest difference being, my BMW does very well on range when I am cruising at 80 mph with the cruise control and I can do 450 miles to a tank of gas (16gallons used). Often times its cheaper to use gas than it is to use my supercharger (which has prices very similar to my home prices). The cost to fuel the 2008 BMW to drive the same range as my 2018 Tesla P3D+ has been at parity when I compare my charging prices VS my local costco gas prices.
I also have a 2008 BMW e90 335xi FBO which puts down 500 awhp to the wheel with 197,000 miles on the clock parked next to the tesla. I'll be honest with you, I have my 2018 P3D+ since new and I still have my gassers.
