I'm pondering a purchase... looking at whether range anxiety is a thing and how bad it is.
Looking at things like N8 postcode to Pitlochry which is 7h 45m via Google Maps and 8h 15m via abetterouteplanner.com with 2 x ~20m fast charging stops. Even a 3 stop route only adds 1 hour overall at 8h 39m.
But this all feels academic, I'm sure reality is not as smooth as the ideal. Things like conditions and driving style reducing range, broken or out of service chargers, etc.
If you’re looking at long range, the Tesla is the only answer right now because of the charging network (both availability of points and speed of charging).
We’ve got a new Renault Zoe coming in July but that will just be used for local trips.
Awesome, thanks.
