Hi Guys

A few weeks ago I drove from Sydney to the Sunshine Coast as the first part of a much longer road trip. I decided to film this leg of the journey and see what happened along the way. This was the furthest I had driven in the Model 3 in one hit. My car is a Tesla 2021 RWD Model 3 with 55kWh LFP. With a bike on the roof and a car full of heavy luggage I knew this would be a little more difficult than usual. I hope you enjoy coming along for the ride. Documenting this made the stops a little more rushed but it also helped pass the time. I didn’t break any records on this trip but it proved that you don’t need to be super experienced to go on an EV road trip. Tesla definitely make it a whole lot easier with their efficient cars and reliable supercharging network. I realise that I probably charged a bit too long at some points but it doesnt really matter as the charging sites weren't busy. By the time I got a coffee & used the bathroom, the car was well and truly done charging. I felt pretty rushed during my charge stops.
