EV Channels Review

This video documents a viewer's "10% Challenge" road trip simulation in his 2024 Tesla Model Y Long Range Dual-Motor. The test aims to replicate real-world road trip conditions by charging for 15 minutes at a 10% state of charge and measuring the distance traveled until the next 10% state of charge is reached. The reviewer successfully completed the challenge, achieving 100.4 miles of travel at an average speed of 80 mph under favorable weather conditions (low 70s Fahrenheit). The reviewer highlights the Model Y's capability for long-distance travel, stating that with a 15-minute charge, an additional 100 miles can be added, making extended road trips feasible and enjoyable. The car, nearly two years old with 20,000 miles, demonstrated impressive range and charging performance, reinforcing the practicality of EVs for road trips. The reviewer concludes that the Model Y is a pleasure to drive and that charging does not significantly impede long journeys.
