We are almost there. Doesn’t the average internal combustion engine car go something like 600 to 1000 miles on a tank of fuel? If so just a little bit more and the “range anxiety” argument will no longer be valid.
I might tap the center of that if I was doing near 100% highway, hypermiling and ran out the tank. But typically 300-500 in either of mine and I drive about 20 miles a day maximum.
Just a matter of faster charging, takes me maybe 5-10 minutes to fill up and pay, would take a lot longer for an EV. Certainly not an issue if every accommodation had charging points, as I’d then be unlikely to need a full charge during the day.
And yes, for regular day to day driving I would just charge at home, as I’m fortunate to have a garage. Not the case for many folks, sadly.
Definitely great news, and it’s looking good that my next car will be an EV.
No, it’s more like 3-400. The key point here is not the range, but the charging time
One car I had I could just about reach 600 miles if driving carefully on the highway. That was a diesel with a large tank. No other car I’ve had did better. My first car has a 300 mile range.
I’m guessing you don’t actually drive.
Na, a blind guy driving would be horrible for me and everyone else. Lol
Doesn’t seem to stop a lot of drivers
