The Tesla Model3 Dual Motor Long Range 2020 is rated at 315miles full charge. So it’s way more than just running around town and you can drive a significant distance without recharging the batteries. So for 98% of your normal daily/ annual driving no concerns about looking for a charger just plug in when you get home and a full charge every day.
For the occasional road trip more that 250 miles away you may have to do a little more planning on where to plug in and get lunch. If that’s a problem then stick with your your ICE vehicle .
The 2021 Model3 LR goes 353 miles full charge and I expect this number is going to rise every year.
The Model S Plaid 390 mile range 0-60 in 2 seconds top speed 200 mph is the fastest production car ever made nothing can touch it.

The LR Model 3 does 0-60 in 4.3 seconds and performance in 3.7 seconds. This will beat most cars in the 1/4 mile even Ferraris have been left in the dust.
Electric Vehicles aren’t for everyone
