The coasts, the south, and interstates highways. Most of the US area, where you can go in the USA, is not covered.
- lbotos 8y agoThe claim was "99% of the population is covered" which I suspect is exactly phrased to be true in light of your claim.
- tempestn 8y agoThese cars have ranges of 300-400 miles or more though. Tough to go that distance in a single trip without traveling through a populated area or using an interstate highway.
- natch 8y agoGenerally 200-300 miles would be more fair but your point stands.
- natch 8y agoNot true. I've been on several long interstate trips in large western states, including very large sparsely populated ones. Coverage was never a problem. There are plenty of superchargers. The network is really impressive... and growing! On my trips I met other people at the superchargers who had similar experiences in the west, the midwest, and the east. Met people driving from Chicago to California for example, and they were doing great. You can pretty much drive anywhere in the US, although you clearly want to choose a route in such a way as to visit chargers when needed.
