It's important to remember that EVs can be left charging unattended. This makes time requirements very different than filling up with gas. If you park your car at home, leave it charging overnight. It doesn't matter if it will take 4, 8 or 12 hours — you have the whole night. Also it's unlikely that you will run it down to 0% every day, so you just need to top it up. If you have a parking with chargers at work, you can plug it there. That's 8 hours when the car is sitting idle and could be charging. Or at a supermarket — plug it in when you're shopping. Even with a relatively slow charger you'll likely return home with more battery than you've left with. This is called destination charging, and these chargers are designed to top up your car while you're parked there for longer periods anyway. Really fast charging is needed on road trips, but there you will want at least 100kW. For daily home use charging speed literally doesn't matter.
