Given you have a choice, which car would you take?
Will be doing round trip from Reno/Tahoe to San Diego next week. Google Maps indicates 563 miles x 2 for 1126 miles. Starting elevation 4500', max 8330', min sea level. Just my spouse and I.
Due to heat forecasted between 95-108 degrees along most of the route, I'm leaning to taking my 2017 Prius Prime.
My 2012 Tesla P85 has free Supercharging and a new 2022 high voltage pack. 90% state of charge is 244 miles. However, due to forecasted high heat I'm afraid of (1) exposing to high heat conditions when I have the Prius Prime as an option, (2) slower supercharging imposed due to high heat, and (3) risk of Model S priortizing cooling to battery over interior cabin.
