    Thats absolutley true, but I live in an apartment complex that wont even fix the elevators, there’s no way in hell I’d ever be able to charge at home and for that reason… I can never have an EV.

      Landlords will also realize EVs are better, and when tenants start moving out for places with chargers, things will change.

      You can charge it at charge points surely?

      I mean you don’t refuel your car at home, do you?

        Do you charge your phone in a grocery store? I mean, if fuel was readily available through a pipe straight in your house, you wouldn’t go to pump, would you?

        Electricity is already available to 99.99% of homes, and 100% of homes considering switching to EV. Fuel, I don’t think it is available to any home at all.

        Also, it takes 30 mins at least to fully charge an EV (while degrading the battery a lil more than average), it takes 5 minutes tops to refuel an ICE car.
