My article talks about daily usage. For long distance travel, obviously I charge to higher % and I use Superchargers. Although even in those circumstances, I never reach 400km between charges, more like 300-350km. Never the ilusive 533 km.

Range depends on so many things - speed, acceleration, elevation, temperature (not only from heating/AC but there’s also increased drag in winter from air resistance), wind, precipitation, tire pressure, tire profile.

You can try following trucks closely on highways, the reduced drag does wonders.

If you have a Tesla, really watch that gas pedal. Strong acceleration is fun but super bad for range.
