A good example of this thinking is when I have a 300km journey but only have 50% charge in the car at the start. Telsa’s nav will get me to charge up at the beginning of the trip for, say, 10 minutes and arrive at my destination with, say, 10% charge. What I actually do is ignore the nav and don’t charge at the beginning, drive halfway, stop to charge and have a bite to eat etc, then arrive at my destination with about 50% charge. Much better!
Tesla’s nav recommendation is more like a fossel car approach, ie fuel up in 5 minutes then drive like the clappers for 3 hours straight.
