For the 160-mile Model S, I would expect an official EPA range of 109 miles and I would be shocked if you didn't consistently see at least 100 miles of range under real-world conditions.
That would be quite sad. Doesn't Tesla state the roadster gets 245 miles? The EPA rated it at 244 miles, which makes Tesla 99% accurate with their stated mileage. I should hope that they don't slip down to being only 68% accurate. That would put the 300m pack at just over 200 miles of range.
I've come to expect Tesla to under promise and over deliver, so I'd hope they were more on point with their numbers.
Very true, but don't you agree that the cost to roll-out fast charger infrastructure is going to be orders of magnitude less than what it took to build the gasoline station network?
I honestly don't have a black or white answer on this, but why do you foresee it being much less costly?
