    … in north America.

    My experience in Europe where the EV infrastructure is more developed, long trip are not an issue. I don’t even plan my trip, I just go and charge when I need it.

      Edit, wording

      Still a 8h driving day will require more charging time than gas refill time, regardless of how many chargers there are.

      Acknowledged on your planning point, that’s a huge improvement.

        Sure. Nobody disputes that.

        But it’s a very small percentage of the population who drives like that.

        And for much of the rest of the people, an EV can be a viable option.
