Nashville (actually near junction of Franklin and Brentwood) to Birmingham is less than 190 miles. So should be no problem if you have a . full charged 85.. If you have a 60 or partly charged 85 ,just slow down.
Yes. Franklin to Louisville is 190 miles also too. BTDT. But its very nice now to have Bowling Green in between.
There is a significant range increase at 60 mph compared to 75 mph. You will still get there, why rush the experience of driving the world's best car?
Memphis (under construction) and Birmingham will make the Tesla much more useful to Tennessee drivers.
Been meaning to spend some time with the math to calculate just how much faster one gets somewhere at 75 MPH vs 60 MPH considering the longer charge times needed to recover from 75 MPH. Considering the car charges faster than it discharges there is some savings of time, but not as much as one might imagine.
