Do I really have 150 miles left on this charge? Is the next fast charger really only 75 miles away? What if the range changes and I don't have enough charge to get there?
More electric vehicles are expected to hit Tennessee roads as new models, including trucks, and charging stations arrive.We borrowed a Cadillac LYRIQ and realized there are a lot of unknowns when road tripping in an EV.I've always been a fan of electric vehicles — until I took one on a road trip.
Oh and I also needed to use the car's navigation system, which would"condition" the car's battery about 30 miles before charging, so it needed to know when I was stopping to charge. So that's five pieces of technology it took to keep me plugging along. Also, charging itself is like the wild west. Stations break down. They get busy. And their chargers don't always put out the kilowatts they say they will. You just don't really know until you get there. The apps are pretty good at providing some of that information, but they are hard to check while driving I plugged into a 350kw"hyper-fast" charger in a Sam's parking lot in Cookeville. But the charging station screen indicated it was only putting out 144kw.
"Once completed, the Fast Charge Network will include approximately 80 locations, 200 fast chargers, and multiple station owners and site hosts connecting interstates and major highways across TVA’s seven-state service area," he said."While traveling our interstates and major highways, drivers will never be more than 25 miles from a Fast Charge Network charging location. We plan to have this network completed by 2026.
