range anxiety isn't really a thing if you charge every night. you don't even need 500 miles of range; 300 is more than enough, likely less. but even 500 miles isn't enough when you're 100% reliant on non-existent charging infrastructure. that might not be an issue for most people who can afford an $82,000 car, i guess.
- catchnear4321 3y ago500 miles at 60 miles an hour is 8 1/3 hours. yes, that’s only an extra 2 1/3 hour over 300, and whether that is significant will really depend on the operator. the increase in range could be enough to garner more commercial interest, more family interest. doesn’t remove the infra needs, does reduce it. driving “all day” becomes more plausible. a lot like with the laptop battery performance increases. how we use laptops has changed a lot, now that you can use one “all day long.” anxiety seems like the right choice. low grade, but present. not panic, not discomfort, something in between.
