EV Channels Review

This video documents a road trip from Maine to North Carolina in a 2023 Tesla Model Y Standard AWD. The reviewer, Branden Flasch, provides a detailed account of charging stops, efficiency, and the overall experience. Key highlights include the car's performance on the road, achieving 221 miles on a single charge (its most ever outside of a range test), and a respectable overall efficiency of 291 Wh/mile for the trip. The reviewer notes the charging curve on the 4680 battery pack is 'disappointing' and experienced some issues with specific Supercharger handles and stalls. Notable charging locations featured include the first-ever Supercharger site in Milford, Connecticut, and a site with Magic Dock in Enfield, Connecticut. The reviewer also encountered new Apple Green installations and older, less functional chargers. The trip covered 2,563 miles with a total charging cost of approximately $48, excluding the hotel charge. The video concludes with a comprehensive recap of the journey's stats and the car's condition.
