Even the superchargers don't make it a feasible cross country road trip car though. The average car can give you 300+ miles range in a 5 minute gas stop, the supercharger gives you 170 miles range in a 30 minute stop. It really makes the most sense as a city car that you plug in at night.



I'd like to see Tesla take on a Volt style plug-in hybrid. I'm sure they could make a much more enjoyable package than GM.
Depends on the definition of "cross country". It's used every day for this, up
And down the coast at least. There are tricks you start to learn to make it feasible.
