The inconveniences are still very real. The trip distances follow a power law, e.g. 1000 mile trip every 3 years, 400 mile trip twice a year, 100 mile trip 10 times a year, etc. Another example of inconvenience, the Teslas trapped in the road with no batteries this winter has convinced me never to go near a pure EV for at least 10 years. The infrastructure and technology is certainly not here now and the infrastructure won't be widely used for 10 years at least. I will let you all be the beta testers.
- _aavaa_ 3y ago> The trip distances follow a power law I'm sure they do. We disagree about whether the long tail should be handled by 1) buying a car which can handle it at the cost of the other 99% of the time, or 2) plane, train, renting a car, or extending your existing driving breaks to recahrge. > the Teslas trapped in the road with no batteries this winter As the stories themselves pointed out back then, many of the new owners did not know that preconditioning was something they had to do before being able to charge. That alone greatly exacerbated the problem.
