Curious to know how much of a factor is it to have something like a supercharger network across the country. Would you have bought this car if there was no such network? How often do you use it?
I feel many many electric cars are coming up to compete with Tesla in every aspect, but no one seems to be bothered about something like the supercharger network.
- stephengillie 9y agoIt takes a fairly significant amount of time to charge a car - sometimes equivalent to a commute. So most consumers base their purchase on charging at home, meaning apartment renters are more likely to get a hybrid. One of the oft-mentioned benefits of an electric car is simply charging it overnight, so it's ready to go the next day. Part of this not having to think about an extra trip for fuel every few weeks. It seems odd that someone would forgo this convenience to travel somewhere else for a recharge, or purchase a vehicle that could not travel a round trip on a charge.
