What is the range on an electric vehicle and what is the recharge time once expended to be able to drive again?

I make runs one weekend a month of roughly 350 miles in each direction with a minimum of stopping. And if I were to run out of power, at BEST I would be in a high crime urban area but more likely I would be in the woods between small towns.

An electric car is a non-starter for these purposes.

500 miles for the Lucid Air and 20 minutes gives you 80%, 20 more minutes to 100%.

I grew up oil field trash. Oil isn’t going to die anytime in our lifetimes but the reason TSLA is through the roof is because of their new 4680 tabless battery design and revolutionary battery tech that brings energy density to 380W Hours/kilo and cuts production footprint by 90%. There is room for both. Pull the knee jerk reaction wall down and go look at some Battery Day info from Musk. Really fascinating stuff.

ETA: my handle is an homage to Nikola Tesla, not Elon’s car company.
