Your First Tesla Trip
Never driven an EV? Good – you get two firsts at once. Fifteen minutes at handover is enough to make the car feel ordinary, and range anxiety usually ends at the first Supercharger, when twenty-five minutes turns out to be a coffee.
Charging is easier than filling a tank
Plug in, get a coffee, drive on. The Supercharger recognises the car by itself and there is no bill at all – Supercharging is included with us. The navigation plans every stop before you think to.
The route we start people on
The five-day Surf & Desert Escapade out of San Diego: legs of 125 miles at most, a charger at every stop, and a gentle mix of city, beach and desert. By the end you will plan the next one yourself.
The handover, and the net under you
At handover we go through it together: one-pedal driving, switching Autopilot on, the Supercharger routine, Camp Mode, pitching the tent. After that the concierge is one message away, at any hour.
