A blessing for gastronomy

On the road with Tesla: juice out, beer in

The journey from Vienna to Salzburg begins without a care in the world. As clueless as the driver, who sees 390 kilometers of range on the display. A little later, the neo-electric vehicle not only gets to know a new sense of time and concrete squares with superchargers, but also welcoming inns. So welcoming, in fact, that a whole new hospitality model has now been created with those forced to wait.

Tesla fans with a penchant for self-mortification (meaning "voluntary deprivation and suffering for the sake of a greater good") may forgive this article. The car somehow knows everything, or at least it constantly draws your attention to it. The almost 400 hp stoke the fire under the heated seats. In Salzburg in just under three hours? That's normal. If it weren't for the on-board computer constantly displaying St. Valentin. Yes, that's the most westerly town in Lower Austria, immediately followed by Upper Austria, before the A1 merges with the A10 in Salzburg.
