We just bought an EV (VW ID4) and it's fine, but the charging situation in the US is kinda fucked for road trips. Besides usually taking way longer than filling up gas, making sure there are charging stations on the way is a pain, they might fill up and then you're kinda just screwed (have to wait a long time for people to move), and the UX for these things is atrocious. Gas filling is dead simple and fast even though I have no 'account', but filling up our EV at an Electrify America station takes considerably longer to start even with an account already present. The UI on the charging station is really clunky and slow, with some extra steps there for apparently no reason. I've also heard plenty of stories of persistently broken chargers on various networks, only Tesla seems to have their shit together for EV charging. More range, more charging stations, faster charging, easier charging, more reliable charging, these are all necessary imo.
