That sounds about right - the 85 kWh battery of the Tesla would then get you about 240 miles range.
Another interesting way of looking at this then, is that the amount of power required to power s single 100 Watt Light bulb for 3 1/2 hours could move an entire Tesla + person inside 1 mile. Wowsa.

- userbinator 12y ago"could move an entire Tesla + person inside 1 mile"... on level ground. If you've ever had to push a car manually in that situation, you'll notice that it's very easy to keep it moving once you get started, as you only have to overcome the rolling resistance. I've never pushed a Tesla before but I'd bet that it's far easier than a regular car, and a regular car isn't that hard to push already. According to this page: http://physics.ucsd.edu/do-the-math/2011/11/mpg-of-a-human/ http://physics.ucsd.edu/do-the-math/2011/11/mpg-of-a-human/ A human walking takes between 100-200Wh/mi, so the Tesla isn't that far off.
