Porsche Taycan Turbo S: 42-miles = 115-miles

Chris Walton of MOTOR TREND drove from his elevation-39-feet Huntington Beach, CA apartment, 5.5-miles for surfing at El Porto Beach at sea level, returned 5.5-miles home to swap surfboard for snowboard, and proceeded to the Angeles Crest Highway, for a 64-mile drive ( including the the 33-mile ascent ) to the Mount Waterton Ski Area at 7,000-feet elevation.
With 42-miles range remaining on the 5109-pound Taycan, he descended the grade for the 64-mile return home, picking up 73-miles of range from regen, and reaching his home, with 51-miles range remaining on the GOM.
It's pretty neat hat-trick. No range anxiety.
