rated range is relative. if you spend all your time driving around town you might get 350-500 miles of range and not have to charge for a better part of the month...
Um, no.
The only way to get that range would be to hypermile (see the great record set and set again in Europe - now in excess of 500 miles from a single charge).
However, at 25 hours at 25mph, which is what they did, they’d have to charge pretty much daily.
The reality is that under real-world conditions in fairly temperate wx (SoCal), you’ll be lucky to sustain better than 30-40% loss during those city commutes over the course of a week. That’s 160-180 actual miles driven from a full charge of 264-294 rated miles.
I present this reality not to bag on the above post but to provide some semblance of accurate expectations for the veritable plethora of new Model 3 owners, many of whom are in for a rude awakening when faced with $0.20/kW costs and worse.
Put another way, it’s one thing to have zero advantage over a decent hybrid, again in practical urban use, but it’s quite another if you rely upon greatly-exaggerated claims of range when in practical fact that range won’t be there. Add actual cold weather (not SoCal cold weather) and the math gets worse.
Can rated mileage be attained? Sure - from SC to SC while transiting, say, Nebraska or Eastern Kansas. Or even through the Badlands with a tailwind - but most assuredly not with a headwind. Actually, strike that even with a tailwind as they raised the speed limit.
