A pleasant Virginia day trip in the EV6

Northern Virginia to Richmond on I-95. Sometimes 80mph and sometimes 30mph due to typically frustrating summer traffic.

About an hour of free L2 charging at the VCU garage.

Our task in Richmond was clearing out our son’s college apartment. Filled the back of the EV6 with a rollout drawer designed to fit underneath a twin bed. And two bar stools.

A leisurely drive home off I-95, thru the Virginia countryside…with a stop at a very nice farm brewery, Lickinghole Creek Craft Brewery.

A quick 12-min L3 charge for insurance and a pitstop in Haymarket. The 350kw EA charger was slow (no faster than 75kw/hr) but that didn’t matter…I probably could have made it home without the charge.

262+ miles. No charging costs. Plenty of room to bring back everything we wanted to bring back
