I was considering buying an electric car and Tesla is an obvious choice, so I decided to rent a Model 3 for a weekend and drove it about 1000km in order to evaluate it.
I am from Genova, Italy but live in Zurich, Switzerland so my use case is to find a car that allows me to enjoy a weekend/day trip in Switzerland and occasionally can comfortably bring me to Genova without increasing the total trip time too much (over 30 minutes) due to charging needs.
With a common ICE car, the fastest one way trip without any rest/fuel stop can be done in about 5-5.30 hours; on average it takes 6-6.30 due to queues (damn Gotthard) and rarely it is 7+ hours.
So what about an EV? Here is my review after a 960km round trip in two days.
