This Nearly Ruined My EV Road Trip…

This nearly ruined my EV road trip. What started as a journey from Liverpool down to Dover quickly turned into some of the worst driving conditions I’ve ever experienced — with extreme winds making the drive far more difficult than expected. This is the beginning of my EV road trip to the Netherlands for the Great European Tesla Light Show, and if this is how it starts… it doesn’t look promising. Can an electric car really handle a long-distance trip like this? And is it actually easier (or cheaper) than petrol or diesel? — 📍 Route: Liverpool → Farnborough → Dover 🔋 Charging stops, costs, and real-world EV ownership insights included — 🛠️ Sponsored by 3W Floor Mats If you’re looking for durable floor mats for your Tesla: 👉 Official website (up to 22% off): https://uk.3wliners.com/?ref=BENGOESE...
