Modern electric cars have 300+ mile ranges and charge about 80% of that in 20 minutes or less. For city dwellers without access to a charging point at home, it would be completely feasible to spend about as much time at public charging stations as they would have at the gas station every week or so. There is a lot of "range anxiety" (as reflected by your comment) going around, but in many cases that is not justified even today, let alone a few years in the future when more charging infrastructure has been built out.
