Plug-in EVs don’t really make sense for people who live in apartments, condos, or renters of any kind (why commit to an expensive car you might not be able to charge at your next house?). Hydrogen EVs will work basically the same as a gasoline car.
I really don’t think this is a nefarious move by the government to keep gas cars on the road, but is just trying to keep the oil industry relevant when we don’t have gas cars.
In my experience renting, I didn’t really get to pick and choose features but was mostly just stuck with whatever crummy apartment I could afford and actually get in a city with <1% vacancy.
Solving the housing crisis would be a huge step in moving forward on plug-in EVs tbh.

Speaking personally, charging ports are a very high priority for our next apartment. Most places are either already in progress or planning to.
Edit: although we did just give up our car so it’s less of a priority now. Might be in future though.
