> The other argument about not having enough charging is weird too
This actually is a bit of a concern for me. I live in a single-family home, so charging at home isn't an issue, but I am in a rural area so charging infrastructure in the places I'm likely to go is something to think about.
I'm more likely to buy a lightly-used ICE car now and an EV in a few years after the market matures a bit more.
- erik_seaberg 4y agoI've read chargers can be built for street parking, but I've never seen one in my suburb, which rules out about half the drivers.
- Symbiote 4y agohttps://chargefinder.com/ https://chargefinder.com/ Set the filter to 3-22kW or so, and in Europe at least you will see a lot of on-street chargers. London especially. In some places they are added to street lights, since those had a thick cable for the old sodium lights but don't need the power any more for LED lighting. In others, it's a new post between two parking spaces.
- mint2 4y agoIt’s not a totally unreasonable consideration when making an individual personal choice, but it’s when making an argument against policies and the industry as a whole that the charger access contention is wrongheaded. Increased demand is what will drive a fast charger buildout and better charging infrastructure for apartments.
