We needed to drive to Portugal. Couldn't fly the 182, coudn't fly commercial. So we took the 2020 (made in California!) Tesla Model 3 which I've had since new, and drove for 3 days.
This video is a short summary of all the supercharger stops.
My niece Joana's wedding, my recently-passed brother Marcus's ashes spreading, some work meetings with BestAgent team members based in Lisbon, and a lot of family to catch up with are some of the reasons we had for traveling to Portugal. Plus I needed to retrieve a computer too big to fly with. (Also, we considered flying in the Cessna, but we needed a car when we got there, and more luggage space).
Annemarie was 7 months pregnant, and Clara and Archie were excited (even though they have both made the trip multiple times before, pre-covid, but were too young to remember).
I broke the journey up into 3 longer videos for my family vlog:
Day 1: we left Devon and got to Paris for dinner, Annemarie's first time there. • Devon to Portugal in t...

We have also just completed a trip from London to Lisbon in a Fremont Model 3 LR. Also stopped for a splash and dash at Le Relais Du Bois. No issues with chargers on the way. Local EDP chargers were not so good. They would start at 120kW but then drop down to 30kW after a minute or two.

Fab video... Thanks guys. Do you think this trip would be just as easy in a RWD? How often did you need to charge to 100%?
@CharlieLamdin
@CharlieLamdin 22 дня назад
Yes, the new RWD models have the same range as this 2020 Long Range model. Rarely essential to charge to 100% but it makes sense to do so if you've stopped for lunch or a longer break when you can, without delaying.

Great video. I am really tempted to get myself a M3, but do you miss the trunk being a hatch? I rather want M3 but dont know with 2 kids i will regret not getting bigger trunk. Have you ever regret your M3 or is the opening still plenty? The liters itself is huge and compared to stationwagons.

Hi, thanks for the helpful entertaining video. I am planning a trip to spain from london. Can i ask two questions please. 1: what you think how long it ll take us to get to spain Barcelona from london 2: and an estimated cost including super charge and toll.
@CharlieLamdin
@CharlieLamdin Год назад
I’ve done Barcelona to London in 12 hours driving non stop as fast as possible, but typically it would be a nice journey if you stop for the night around Paris. Costs? Tolls; charging, channel crossing… I’d budget €200 for tolls and charging (that’s more than enough) plus whatever your crossing cost is.

@husnaproduction3083 Год назад
@@CharlieLamdin thank you so much for replying. €200 including the supercharge that seems low, i was expecting a higher cost. We have decided to go to Bolzano (Itlay) from london. €200 estimate too good to be real 😀

I cannot understand why public infrastructure in europe is so poor. why there aren't generic public fast chargers? rolling back 100 years, if I were to start a new auto maker, would I have to open a network of gas stations?

11 Years ago I ve done this Same Trip I had to Stop once to Refuel 😳 Theres a massive Difference between your Family Choosing to Stop and your car constantly forcing you to Stop I mean is not about driving for 14 hours straight although I could with multiple drivers its about Picking when to stop , where to stop or how long to stop or Skip multiple Stops if basic conditions are not met , such as lack of Toilets , Restaurants , You name it , Getting a Tesla it will be like going 20 years back

I’ve done the journey multiple times in: 1. Two different VW Touaregs 2. A 1989 Mercedes 3. A Tesla Model 3 Long Range. With small kids you have to stop whatever and I can tell you, for a fact, that the Tesla (while my least favourite car to do the trip in) is by far faster and cheaper than any of the others. To the point where we can’t afford to do the trip (at the speeds I like to drive) in the Touareg or Merc. So I can assure you I’m not delusional. The fuel in the Touareg is £1,000+ each way (because I drive it faster than average and fuel is astronomically expensive). My charging bill in the Tesla was around £200 each way. It’s much faster and much cheaper. Until you’ve tried it yourself, I’m afraid you’re the one who’s being delusional chap! 😊 😎
