Surprising speed limitation.

Recommended Posts

Where are you from? I am from San Francisco, CA, USA

What car do you drive? I drive a Tesla Model 3, LR RWD

What's the longest trip you've taken in your EV? I haven't taken a long trip yet. The longest trip I have taken was a day trip of about 150 miles. 

We are now planning a trip of about 2,700 miles. From San Francisco to Santa Fe, NM, and back via a different route.

Part of the route back home will be from Santa Fe, NM to Sedona, AZ. ABRP suggests Supercharger stops at Gallup, NM (About 200 miles) and Holbrook, AZ.

However, when I add a planned waypoint at Paguate, NM (to visit a friend) something weird happens. I am now told, in red with the road to Paguate also in red, that I should not exceed 68 mph., even though I added only a few miles between Santa Fe and the Gallup Supercharger.

Why is this? Is this about elevation I don't know about?

Should I add a charging stop at the Albuquerque Supercharger?

Thanks in asdvance.

Interestingly, trying to replicate your route I'm not seeing a speed-limited region:

Could you post a plan link so I can have a look? It's possible that it's just slightly faster to drive a little slower than going for an additional charge stop, rather than being truly necessary.  If you want, you can click "Next Charger" to have it re-assess the first charge stop and look for alternatives that might remove the speed limited section.

Another weird thing happened just now. 

When I plan the same route as before from Santa Fe to Sedona with a waypoint in Paguate, ABRP now does it right by automatically adding the Supercharger in Albuquerque.

Before this was not the case. The route from Santa Fe to Paguate showed red with a notification of 68 mph. I had to manually add the Albuquerque Supercharger. It looked like the attached image. Only after I added the the Albuquerque SC, did the red line turn blue. 

Must have been a "glitch in the Matrix".

Ah, the greyed out supercharger in Albuquerque means you told the planner to exclude it from planning. You can fix that by clicking on the charger on the map and clicking "Allow this Charger Again".
