What range problems?
- Zhenya 6y agoYou honestly haven't done a 2 hour drive to a hiking/biking/winery destination more than 3 times in 10(!!) years?
- com2kid 6y agoI live in the pacific northwest. 30 minutes to all those places. :) Heck a good electric bike can get me to half of them. I go camping yearly but normally with my friend who takes his minivan. Even then only 1 of the trips has been over 200 miles away. Seattle is awesome for a number of reasons, half of those reasons involve how close Seattle is to outdoor activities. When on vacation using a rental I've driven way over 250 miles at a time, but I'm not counting that against use cases for my primary vehicle.
- bigwheeler 6y agoI’ve driven 10,000 miles since Christmas, just for fun/recreation.
- Dylan16807 6y agoSo 155 per day on average? Fair that you wouldn't want a 200 mile range, but either 250 or 300 miles of range could serve you pretty well!
- tonyedgecombe 6y agoI think you are an outlier.
- natch 6y agoBut that’s the wrong argument when electric cars are perfectly capable of taking long road trips, if you choose one with a good fast charging network.
- CogitoCogito 6y agoI’m pretty ignorant of electric cars, but are you saying that different cars have different charging networks? There isn’t something standardized like with gas stations? Or do you mean that charging stations can charge whatever, because they support different types like we currently do at gas stations regarding diesel vs gasoline as well as different octane ratings? The former sounds incredibly wasteful. The latter isn’t that bad I guess.
