Charger placement favors mid-range EVs and unintentionally penalizes long-range EVs.

Tulsa to California EV Road Trip — Range vs Reality This video documents a real-world EV road trip from Tulsa, Oklahoma to California, focusing on what actually matters on long drives: charging behavior, efficiency, elevation, weather, and execution—not just spec sheets. After years of driving, testing, and renting multiple EVs, this trip continues my effort to understand how electric vehicles perform outside brochures and marketing claims. This is not a race. It’s a practical, mile-by-mile look at how range is consumed, how charging strategies work in real conditions, and how small decisions—like overcharging by 10% or choosing the wrong stop—can affect total trip time. Key topics covered in this trip: • Real-world range vs advertised range • Charging curve behavior and tapering • Flash-and-dash vs longer charging strategies • Elevation gain, wind, and temperature impact • ABRP vs in-car navigation planning • Overcharging mistakes and lessons learned • Why execution beats battery size on road trips This journey highlights an important truth: Range is theoretical. Roads are real. Whether you’re an EV owner, someone considering an EV, or just enjoy road-trip and data-driven content, this video shares practical insights that don’t show up in reviews or spec comparisons. More trips are coming, including head-to-head comparisons and deeper dives into charging strategy and efficiency. If you enjoy real numbers, honest lessons, and EV nerd details, you’re in the right place. 👇 Let me know in the comments if you want: • More detailed charging data • Side-by-side EV comparisons • Route planning breakdowns • Cost and efficiency analysis Thanks for watching.
