"Can an EV make it from Boston to Cape Cod?"
Easy yes. Massachusetts EV infrastructure ranks among the best in the country. Cape Cod has Tesla SC at Hyannis, Provincetown, and Sagamore + L2 at most resort hotels.
Minimum recommended real-world range: 220 miles
Cape Cod was a surprisingly early EV adopter. Tesla added Supercharger sites at Sagamore, Hyannis, and Provincetown, and most major resort hotels have L2 chargers in their lots. The biggest planning consideration isn't charging — it's summer weekend traffic on the Bourne and Sagamore bridges.
| Stop | Mile | Role | Charging |
|---|---|---|---|
| Boston, MA (start) | 0 | anchor | Dense Tesla SC + EA + EVgo across metro |
| Sagamore (bridge) | 60 | stop | Tesla SC + EA at the gateway |
| Hyannis | 75 | stop | Tesla SC + EA + L2 at major hotels |
| Provincetown | 115 | destination | Tesla SC + L2 at multiple guesthouses |
| Return: Hyannis | 155 | stop | Same |
| Boston, MA (return) | 230 | anchor | Same |
Recommended overnight stops with L2 charging. Always verify the specific property's charger on PlugShare before booking — hotel chargers fail and listings don't always reflect reality.
Tip-of-Cape destination. Many guesthouses and the Crowne Pointe have L2 for guests. Walkable so you can charge once and explore on foot.
Expedia's amenity filter is imperfect — also verify chargers on PlugShare before you book. Hotels lie about working chargers more than they should.

BEST: late May, June, September. AVOID: Fourth of July week and early August on summer weekends — Bourne and Sagamore bridge traffic can add 2+ hours each way. Winter Cape is quiet and most restaurants close.
