How Long Can a Tesla Drive After Running Out of Power?

It can still drive about 20 kilometers. On the highway, a Model S can drive approximately 408 miles at a speed of 45 miles per hour. If the speed increases to 75 miles per hour, the range drops to 269 miles. Here is some relevant information about Tesla: Tesla is the world's first electric vehicle company to adopt lithium-ion batteries. The electric vehicles it produces are sold in more than 30 countries, and it has manufactured the world's first mass-produced electric convertible sports car. Tesla is renowned as the most expensive electric vehicle brand in the world. The cars it produces are priced significantly higher than those of other electric vehicle brands, but they offer relatively stable performance guarantees, making them highly favored in automotive markets worldwide.
I've been driving a Tesla for quite some time and noticed that when the battery is almost depleted, the dashboard displays the remaining range. At this point, you can still manage to drive about ten kilometers or so, depending on the situation. If the temperature is low or you're driving at high speeds, the range drops even faster. Once, I was in a hurry when the battery showed zero, but the car could still move slowly for a few kilometers to reach a charging station—it was really close. So, it's a good habit to start looking for a charging station when the battery drops below 20%, rather than risking driving until it's completely empty. Otherwise, the car will simply stall and require a tow, which is both troublesome and expensive. Installing a home charging station is quite convenient, saving you the hassle of running around. In short, safety first—don't gamble with luck.
