We need to tell that to people in Norway where 85% of new cars are plugin vehicles.
Electric cars can run on average 100 km/h over 10 hours if you plan your trip well (and have a bit of luck with free spots on plugin stations). Apart from charging time I don't see where plugin vehicle is worse than ICE one when it comes to features.
- packetlost 4y ago> Electric cars can run on average 100 km/h over 10 hours That's below highway speed here, and everything is at least twice the distance in America than you think it is. The nearest major city from me is 240km away, the second is 435km and it gets -34C here (the average in winter being about -10C). It just isn't feasible if you aren't in a dense metro area and only ever use your vehicle to commute (which is by far not the case).
- adrianN 4y agoAverage trip lengths in America are not that much longer than in Europe. On the rather rare occasions when you do several hundred kilometers in a single day, stopping for fifteen minutes to recharge every two hours or so doesn't increase travel time all that much. You have to take breaks anyway.
