  • Almost 2000 kilometres covered through Normandy, Bretagne and the Loire Valley. Then another 2000 to Austria and back
  • Some noticeable drop-off in the battery performance, but still manage to cover 275 kilometres with about 80% battery
  • Still no waiting time at the Tesla Superchargers, even though you can see they are more busy than in the previous years
Brussels to North-Western France, then Brussels to Austria via Germany
The longest segment – 275 km; half of the segments are over 200km
Still looking good ????

  • The same distance covered as last year (about 3700kms, almost 4000 including the small trips at destinations)
  • No drop off in range compared to identical trips done in the previous years
  • I can confidently plan segments of 250+ kms. In fact, 8 out of 18 segments during this road trip were over 230km
  • Will probably stay away from Southern France for a while after some horrific traffic jams between Lyon and Valence
  • The number of Tesla Superchargers increasing faster than the combined need of Tesla + non-Tesla cars. Never had to wait in line and always found at least 2 free spots
  • The Superchargers network in Germany is insane
Brussels to Provence, then Brussels to Austria
8/18 segments over 230 km
Still happy

  • Almost 4000km covered this time, a new record
  • Two trips instead of one: to Southern France and to Austria
  • New distance record: 280.3km from Brussels to Metz
  • New range record: only 22kms left in the tank before supercharging
  • No incidents this time 🙂
Brussels to Provence, then Brussels to Austria
The first segment is the biggest – 280.3km. 3784kms in total, excluding the short trips at the destination
280.3kms in one go; still 56km left in the tank…
No risk, no fun ?
Before the final leg
