MODEL X ROAD TRIP TO LAS VEGAS

EV Channels Review

This video documents a road trip to Las Vegas in a Tesla Model X, focusing on the practicalities of charging, energy consumption, and the overall travel experience. The reviewer highlights the convenience of Supercharging, even during busy holiday periods, noting that despite map indications of full chargers, spots were available upon arrival. A significant point of discussion is the unexpected energy loss while parked, which the reviewer attributes to the car's battery conditioning system, estimating an 18% state-of-charge drop over a few days. The reviewer also touches upon phantom braking and the impact of cold weather on battery performance and range. While the trip was smooth, the reviewer expresses a desire to compare energy usage and costs with other Tesla models, particularly the Model Y Performance, in future trips.
