> Remembering the mass evacuation from South Florida last summer made me

> Distance from Miami to Jacksonville is 320+.
1. Tesla owners were probably the only people able to get out with no issues, since gas stations ran out of fuel and a lot of people could not buy gas. The problem was exacerbated by the huge traffic jam that caused ICE cars to run out of fuel on the way. The EVs don't use any energy standing in traffic and use very little at crawling speed. So a Tesla would likely be able to drive that distance to Jacksonville without recharging. However, if a recharge was needed, the superchargers were open and available.
2. Tesla temporarily increased the range of certain models during the Florida disaster with an over the air update. The people with base 60 and 70 models got their capacity bumped to 75 for free. And Tesla did NOT use this as a PR opportunity. They did it quietly and under the radar.
