Tesla Road Trips: Tips & Tricks for a better ride!

Here are some of the tips I recommend if you are planning on doing a road trip in your Tesla vehicle! Some of these tips are Tesla-specific, but many apply to other EVs as well.

Before you leave:
- Plan your route ahead of time
- Make sure there is charging at your destination
- Scout out chargers around your destination

Preparing your car:
- Make sure your mobile adapter is in your car
- Reduce weight in the vehicle if possible
- Put on aero wheels to improve range
- Charge up to 100% before you go
- Schedule your departure in the car
- Plug in your destination or next charger into the Tesla navigation

On the road:
- Use Autopilot!
- Set speed, and set following distance to the longest distance for maximum safety
- Use energy tab for more accurate range estimate

To improve efficiency:
- Slow down
- Draft behind Semis
- Turn off or reduce HVAC

Charging stops:
- Leave space between you and other cars charging. Tesla splits power between sister charging stalls
- Back in pretty far, the cable is not very long
- Navigation should tell you how long it will take to have enough charge, and you'll be good to go after that
- Charging etiquette: make sure you move when your car is done charging if you plan on sitting for a while

When you arrive:
- Confirm it is okay to plug in and for how long
- Plug your car in so it stays charged
- Enjoy your destination!
- Learn from the road trip and adjust it on your way home if necessary
