Range costs cubic-dollars, and cubic pounds, both of which burden you as you spend 95% of your time doing short in town trips.
How often do you really want to drive for 4+ hours without a short break?
My suggestion is for Tesla to perfect LFP or other chemistry that is friendly to full 100% to 0% usage and then combine it with the packaging efficiency of the 4680 format to deliver a real-world 300 to 400 mile range pack and call it good.
Another idea: Save $20k by purchasing the modest-range everyday car, and just Turo a long-range 300 KWh beast for the twice yearly cross country trip.
