The drive is 248.7 miles, about 4h 42m. Along it sit 88 DC fast chargers within 5 miles of the route — and 71 of those have somewhere to eat within a 10-minute walk, so the charging stop and the meal are the same stop.
Plan this trip on the map →Split into roughly 2 legs, these are the strongest stops near each break — most power, most stalls, shortest walk to food. Where you actually need to charge depends on your car and how you drive; this is where the good stops are.
| At | Where | Charger | Food within a walk |
|---|---|---|---|

Typical power along this route is 250 kW, with 56 stops at 150 kW or more and 28 on the Tesla network. Chargers under 50 kW are left out — on a drive this length they cost more time than they save.
In order along the route — the strongest stop in each stretch of the drive, so the list covers the whole route rather than filling up with the city you left.
