If you were smart enough to fill up you should at least have tesla like range. If not then you have been making poor life choices.
Then when you do find gas again it will take you less than 10 minutes to restore full range again.

Yes the ev should have the performance advantage at interstate parking lot speeds as long as the driver leaves the heating and air conditioning off.
