This is not out in some rural town. This is in Portland, OR about 2 miles from downtown. Personal vehicles this large are simply incompatible with urban living and pressure their owners to continually break traffic law. Technically that Miata is parked as close to the stop sign as it can legally be, but as the Denali doesn’t fit in many places around here it’s owner is compelled to park across both the stop sign and the crosswalk.
150 is plenty for a truck that size. It’s a round-town car, not a highway cruiser.
However, if you charge to 80% and keep 20% in reserve, you’ll get 90 miles out of that 150mile battery. You’d be stopping about every hour and a half to charge for 15 minutes or so if you were doing a long trip.
80% of 150 is 120 which is much more reasonable for an around the town car
Yes. Don’t forget about a 20% reserve. Deep discharge is bad for the battery too.
Fair point. Depends on how often it’s happening
