Obviously the charger + vehicle ecosystem has to be able to handle the peak journey of the modal car buyer rather than the modal journey. That's the point of rapid charging though, you won't use it often but it ensures that for the rare long distance journey you are provided for. European drivers also tend to make several long driving trips a year for holidays in the summer and for skiing but I would expect that rapid charging (and some of the imminently coming generation are 350kW) will be required for that to work.
