I'm borrowing an expression a Tesla owner shared with me. Don't know if it's proper lexicon.
He had intentionally drove his Model S until it quit, north of the Red River in Oklahoma, and had it towed to the Supercharger station in Denton.
Tesla support folks told him what to do, he had the car plugged in, charging, started , and was going to walk a few short steps for lunch while it took on some power. He didn't seem concerned, or care about the inconvenience, and happy to pay for the experience.
Which allowed me time to crawl underneath and peer into the wheel wells all I wanted.
I doubt that the MOTOR TREND guys would actually deplete a battery before intervening.
