That's a good point--requires quite a big infrastructure push though to get there. Seems like a bit of a chicken and egg problem, as it will be hard to justify the spending required to make charge-while-parking sufficiently ubiquitous until electric cars have a big market share, but I'm not sure they can get that market share without a good charging story like the one you describe. Tough problem.
- _ph_ 9y agoIt is happening. Here in Germany, you often will find at least one or two charging spots at malls, and a lot of supermarkets have set up charging spots too - as soon as they are regularly occupied, more can be added easily. Also, about 50% of all car owners could addd electricity to their garage or parking lot without a large investment. Some cities are experimenting with adding plugs to street lights.
