One key difference is how low you'd be willing to let your remaining range drop. You probably wouldn't feel much fear driving around with 40 estimated miles left in the Accord. But I imagine 40 miles left in a Tesla might cause a little anxiety. The same-numbered range of a gasoline-powered vehicle is lengthened by the high confidence of being able to refuel within a few miles.
