Trips will require fast chargers but people often stop for food or bathroom so there's an overlap in time
Will there be extra time for most people due to a few long trips a year? Yes, a bit but that's worth it.
Finally there is a percentage of people who this will not convenient for and they should continue to use gas or diesel.
- kibwen 4y ago> Trips will require fast chargers but people often stop for food or bathroom so there's an overlap in time This right here. I'm no stranger to 6+-hour car rides, and my planning guideline has always been to assume 30 minutes of stops for every three hours driven. And even current battery and charging tech is good enough to satisfy that time budget.
