I've always want to know how far my little Fiat can go, so last weekend we've decided to try going to San Francisco from San Jose. It's about 51 miles going from home to San Francisco zoo. We decided to take 101N instead of 280N. We started with a full charge from home. The dashboard is showing 86 miles. There were just 2 of us in the car and we were going about 70-75mph. By the time we reach the zoo, my car is showing 22 miles left. We use the free charger from the zoo(parking is $10 for the weekend). It took 3 hours for a full charge, not a big deal since it took about the same time to explore the zoo.
The dashboard was showing 86 miles when it was fully charged and we made 2 stops in Colma and Daly City before we head home. We decided to take 280S this time. We were going 75-80mph and by the time we reach home, we have about 15 miles left. Total miles drove was 112 miles.
So in summary, you can definitely make it from San Jose to San Francisco one way with a full charge. It takes a bit of planning to make sure you get a charger when you are in the city, but it's do-able! We're planning to try bringing the car to Union Square area next time!
