Because of the infrastructure surrounding it - e.g. fleets of cars taxis, public transit, etc. In other words, better options than having an owning an EV, which, if you pay attention, is what we're talking about here.
- warkdarrior 6y ago> fleets of cars taxis, public transit Surely in those settings the best option is for the taxi companies and the public transit providers to shift to EVs.
- smileysteve 6y ago> In other words, better options than having an owning an EV is what we're talking about here. Nope. The topic is about mass adoption. Not mass adoption by people who take trains or taxi in a certain city. Even within this sub thread, it's comparing the "ease" of getting fuel and parking in nyc (neither of which are actually easy) to which charging is a mass hurdle. Are there people who don't have access to power and security at a parking spot who drive more than 100 miles a day (and drivers that use bottles and get blood clots instead of stopping for 1hr every 250 miles), sure, but that's not the mass, it's somewhere <5%. And roughly a smaller population to whom don't need a car on a regular basis at all.
- ascorbic 6y agoI don't think anyone is suggesting you buy an EV if you don't need a car at all. It's about replacing an ICE car. If you have one of those, you must be parking it somewhere already.
