Most normal people don't drive many hours without making a 20 min break. Doing a 5-10 min break every couple hours seems reasonable. Even just pieing and stretching the legs. As long as the supercharges are placed well its perfectly fine.
I know there are some extreme people who basically push and pie in a bottle if they have to, but most people don't travel that way.
Modern EV can refuel large part of the battery in like 15min.
There is still an advantage, but it gets smaller with every generation of vehicle.
- Fatnino 4y agoThis simply isn't true. I've traveled between the bay area and Los Angeles (a six hour drive) many times with a large variety or different drivers. The longest break was a 20-30 minute stop the Greyhound bus makes at a Burger King in the middle of nowhere. But the bus also, doesn't take the shortest route for some reason. In a private car, the more passengers the greater the chance that someone will ask for a bio break. But if it's just me driving, or I'm the only passenger, the trip is typically a non-stop push. Often without stopping for even 5 minutes at an overpriced gas station in the middle. Using a current gen EV introduces nearly an hour delay each way when you factor in range limitations and excessive charging times compared to gas. I expect this will be a solved issue by 2030
