Used the Tesla chargers at Purdy Lodge for my last long trip, the XPower peaked at 140.1 kW charging speed and went from 14% (22 miles) to 57% (106 miles in 16 minutes. Power dropped to 71 kW at around 55% charge. Starting with 92% charge in Leeds, that was enough to get me to Edinburgh with just a 16 minute stop for charging.
Was getting 3.0 - 3.1 miles per kWh when keeping the speeds to 60 mph, and dropped to 2.9 when getting up to 65 - 70 mph for any length of time (ambient temps were close to 1 deg C)
With the £10.99 Tesla subscription the costs were 38p/kWh off peak and 44p/kWh peak so not too bad (cost £11.88 for the charge on the way back and £7.60 on the way down).
