Plug in, and let's say it takes you just 5 minutes to get a coffee and donut in the shop on your way into work - you've got almost 70 miles of range added. If someone lives in the city, that's a significant amount of driving, from just 5 minutes of charge time. But charging at home...I take it you mean people who live in apartments without a driveway? Because "level 1" charging is actually pretty sufficient for many, many people given how few miles they actually drive per day. You plug in when you get home around, say, 7pm and by 8am your car has been charging at, say, 10 amps / 120v. That's 14.4kw/hr. Many evs use around 250-300whr/mile on average, so that's 48 miles of range every night. If you install a level 2 charger, you're looking at being able to fully charge in a couple of hours. There's no reason apartment buildings can't be set up with charging systems for their parking lots/garages...with deployment scaling as there is demand.
