allu_arjun_fan Posted March 9, 2014 Report Posted March 9, 2014 On Sunday morning, the Tesla Cross Country Rally team completed its record setting trip across the US. We brought you daily updates from the road on our blog. Now, we’re bringing you the numbers. Total trip time76 hours, 5 minutes Total time spent driving59 hours 34 minutes Other “non-drive” time34 minutes Total charging time15 hours 57 seconds Total miles travelled3,427 Longest distance between Supercharger locations247 miles from Flagstaff, AZ to Blanding, UT Longest drive time between Superchargers4 hours, 56 minutes, 29 seconds to travel 162.5 miles from Silverthorne, CO to Cheyenne, WY This overnight leg included a blizzard, more than 12 inches of snow, icy roads, and high winds, resulting in significant traffic delays, the closure and then re-opening of I-70, the closure of the I-25, and the re-routing of the drive to CO-14 and then US85. Total number of closed roads & highways encounteredTwo (I-70 and I-25, both in Colorado) Lowest temperature encountered-4F / -20CDuring the drive between Albert Lea, MN and La Crosse, WI Superchargers. Number of gasoline-powered support vans that broke downOne Energy drinks consumedEnough to power 1,400 lead-acid batteriesThis is an estimate. Tesla uses lithium-ion batteries, which are friendlier to the environment. Fuel saved per car136 gallons Assumes distance of 3,400 miles and average of 25 mpg for a new gas-powered car. Dollar amount of fuel savings per car$435Assumes $3.20 per gallon of gas. The Route The new Supercharger route that spans the US cuts a northern pass, taking drivers close to natural and man-made attractions, such as Arches National Park, Colorado Monument, Mount Rushmore, the Black Hills, Badlands National Park, the Grand Canyon, and the Hualapai Mountains. We didn’t have any time for sightseeing, but the views out the Model S windows were amazing. Here’s the exact route we took, including the distance between each Supercharger. Hawthorne, Los Angeles to Barstow, CA 109 miles to Kingman, AZ 210 miles to Flagstaff, AZ 152 miles to Blanding, UT 249 miles to Moab, UT 75 miles to Grand Junction, CO 109 miles to Glenwood Springs, CO 90 miles to Silverthorne, CO 94 miles to Cheyenne, WY 165 miles to Lusk, WY 158 miles to Rapid City, SD 149 miles to Murdo, SD 137 miles to Mitchell, SD 141 miles to Worthington, MN 127 miles to Albert Lea, MN 116 miles to La Crosse, WI 127 miles to Mauston, WI 66 miles to Highland Park, IL 201 miles to Mishawaka, IN 121 miles to Maumee, OH 151 miles to Macedonia, OH 131 miles to Somerset, PA 176 miles to Hagerstown, MD 108 miles to Newark, DE 137 miles to New York City 128 miles Superchargers skipped Our goal for the cross country trip was to achieve the lowest possible charge time for an electric car traveling across the US. With that in mind, we selected a Supercharger route that let us spend minimal time at each post. That means the Tesla team necessarily had to skip some of the Superchargers along the route.
