So, after owning EVs for 8 yrs, i dared to take my Lucid out of town from No.Houston to Dallas - barely 250 miles. This being TX, the average speeds tend to be north of 80mph.... often touching over 100moh.... and with significsnt AC requirements, as you can imagine, range goes down rather quickly. I had to make a 15 min EA stop on the way up, and a 45 mins stop at another 350kw station on the way back. And just about made it home. That was a LOT of time to spend charging for 6.5 hrs of driving.
My old Porsche Cayenne diesel makes the round trip without any fueling stops.
Looks like I'll have to wait a few more years before charging tech and battery efficiency get to a point where they really dont cause us range anxiety.
