Beartooth Highway question

[Julie B]

Hi!
We have a 24 MYLR and are heading on a roadtrip through Montana, Wyoming and Colorado. Has anyone driven the Beartooth Highway from Red Lodge to Cooke City? How did it do in terms of battery life?
Thanks!

You should be able to map it out with ABRP as well.

With mountains, you will gain some back when descending, but I don't know rules of thumb for it yet. Obviously the energy used to push the air aside when you are moving and for the HVAC system can't be recovered, but a significant percentage of the energy used to gain elevation can be recovered when descending.
