MACH-E ROAD TRIP - DRIVING AN ELECTRIC CAR FROM SAN DIEGO TO UTAH!

EV Channels Review

The EV vloggers embark on the first leg of their road trip from San Diego to Denver in their Ford Mustang Mach-E GT. The initial segment focuses on navigating out of California and the challenges encountered with public charging infrastructure, particularly at busy Electrify America stations. The hosts highlight issues with charger availability, wait times, and the inconvenience of charging stations located in busy retail areas like Walmart. A significant portion of the video is dedicated to showcasing the new Electrify America chargers in Baker, California, which are praised for their speed and improved cable management, though the experience is enhanced by interactions with other EV owners. Despite some initial charging frustrations and a concern about range due to aggressive driving and climbing, the journey through scenic routes in Nevada and Arizona is enjoyed. The hosts express relief at reaching their hotel in St. George, Utah, with a sufficient buffer, and reflect on the day's experiences, noting the contrast between the chaotic Walmart charging stop and the more dedicated charging environment in Baker. The video concludes with anticipation for the remaining journey to Denver.
