Well, Autobahns are designed to help you get from one place to another as quickly as possible. Stopping for charging every 250-300 km is not ideal.

- r00fus 13y agoAssuming you have the 85kwh battery, that's more like 240 to 300mi = ~390km to 480km, which while not as good as a gas engine is still pretty adequate. [1] [1] http://www.teslamotors.com/goelectric http://www.teslamotors.com/goelectric
- josephlord 13y agoDoes that range apply when cruising at 120mph? The website you link indicates 240miles at 70mph (which is not Autobahn speed). Obviously you can go faster on the derestricted sections of Autobahn but you REALLY need to concentrate and plan well ahead at >150mph and that drinks fossil fuels too not just batteries. Edit: A bit of extrapolation from the ranges on seems to show at a first aproximation you could do a little less than 110 miles at 120mph. Based on the datapoints in the parent's link a drop of 5mph gains you a range of about 8%.
