Tesla has consistently exaggerated the driving range of its electric vehicles, reportedly leading car owners to think something was broken when actual driving range was much lower than advertised. When these owners scheduled service appointments to fix the problem, Tesla canceled the appointments because there was no way to improve the actual distance Tesla cars could drive between charges, according to an investigation by Reuters.

Not sure if you are making stuff up for the sake of it. But how you describe EV is nothing like the real world. Believe it how you want, but I will keep repeating (as an actual experience) that EV is a non-issue in this day and age.

On longer trips (1.000km and more) it will take approx 10% more time. Which is a no brainer.
