Ten models or ten cars? And are they actually capable of hitting that? I see people say this but I’m suspecting they don’t actually enjoy large road trips so don’t comprehend how terrible the difference is between 250 and 350 usable miles is. What EVs can do LA to Salt Lake City with one full charging stop? |

I don’t understand what you are asking.
>What EVs can do LA to Salt Lake City with one full charging stop?
I said that there are at least ten non-Tesla EVs that have a rated range over 300 miles.
LA to Salt Lake City is ~690 miles, half of which is 345 miles.
Few EV owners actually get their car’s rated range, and you’d have to be nuts to intentionally pull into a charging station with zero battery. Your scenario really calls for a car that has a rated range of ~400 miles, which, AFAIK, is currently limited to the Model S and the Lucid Air.
The longest range configuration of a Model S has a 405 mile rated range, though you’re not going to get that on a long road trip. The Lucid Air’s rated range is 516 miles. No idea how that bears out in reality, though I suspect it’s similarly less-efficient at interstate highway speeds. (Actual speeds, not speed limits.) I’ll be test driving one soon.
