Up and down the Alps

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
Today I had my lunch at a very cozy place on top of an Alpine mountain.
The drive there was on gentle hills till I got to the last stretch: 5,1 km (3,2miles) with a climb of 580 m (1900 feet), on average 11.3% ascent ratio.
After lunch I came down by the same road.
Battery was in temp, and regen was FANTASTIC!
I came down without ever touching the brake pedal, just letting the car coast, or eventually gently pressing the accelerator when it was going too slow.
The resulting graph is here:

I also have a small suggestion for Tesla: please make the graph auto-scale, so that top peak and lowest bottom are visible.
 
I made this video outlining some serious power consumption and region during a fall colors drive through the mountains and it shows the power graph throughout the entire 80 mile drive via a time lapse. Teslas are especially amazing in the mountains! I rarely have to use my brakes, so amazing!
