So, the Mini E can go an average of 121 miles on a charge -- not bad. The Tesla would do it in two days, I think? Maybe the DBM Energy Audi A2 could do it in one go?

I think the Dolphin with a big lithium pack, or my CarBEN EV could possibly do this in one day, as well. At 150Wh/mile it would take about 75kWh to drive 484 miles. At 125Wh/mile, the pack would need to be ~60kWh. And at 110Wh/mile it would be ~54kWh; which is the size of the pack I am anticipating having in the CarBEN EV.
