It works the other way, too. Last July I was towing a trailer with my '05 Tundra from Las Vegas NV to the SF Bay Area and about 65 miles east of Baker, an EV was holding up traffic.....he had his emergency flashers on, all 4 windows down and was going 40-45 mph in a 70 zone. It was 111 degrees F outside. We blew on by at the speed limit with the windows up and the AC freezing us out.
No way he made it to Barstow or Baker, and if he did, it was a guaranteed 8 hour charge to move on. Batteries don't like running AC and high cruise speeds for realistic time frames (several hours in a row) when it's hot out.
