Please check my math - you stated, “In August I drove 1,740 miles in 23.5 hours of driving and charging time.”

1740 MILES in 23.5 HOURS (1740/23.5) works out to an average of 74+ MPH. Not knowing how much charging time the 23.5 Hours represents, WHERE and HOW were you driving at speeds of close to 100 MPH for extended periods of time??

My guess is that this Korean Battery is still at TRL 3 or 4 at best. When it gets to TRL 7-9 then it may be something.

Thanks for nailing the troll.

Thanks. It was a mistype. It was 32.5 hours, not 23.5 hours. LOL

Exactly 43 hours from when I left my family members' driveway until I reached mine. Minus 10 hours for hotel, and another half hour for doing work when I was ready to hit the road: 32.5 hours driving and charging time.

But again, that's only for optimum scenarios (plenty of fast chargers on that route, it was August and no lower EV range or charging speed from cold weather, and I'm old enough to need a pit stop every 2.5 hours for the restroom and walking around about 10 minutes). An EV wouldn't be good if I was younger and going 4 hours between breaks, or if I traveled a lot in cold weather or in areas with few charging options.
