And what will happen to all those gas stations when we are at 90% EVs adoption, as is the goal? Where will you find a gas car to rent? How many gas stations will be left? EVs still need to be much faster at charging if we are going for high adoption
Is your argument both in the same breath that EVs will catch on too quick that all gas stations will disappear in a matter of days and also that EV adoption will not catch on quick enough because charging is too slow?
This thread is full of people telling you the opposite. I own an EV and am telling you it’s the best car I’ve ever had and will never go back. If you don’t believe they’re good enough then you need to analyze why you believe that, because it’s simply not true. If you want to ask me questions about what they are actually like, feel free, but I won’t sit here and help you “feel” better about them when all the facts show that they’re great vehicles to own.
This thread is full of delusional evangelists who are out of touch with what most people actually think about EVs. I owned an EVs for 10 years and the range anxiety is not just some imaginary mental block, it’s a real issue that isn’t going to be solved anytime soon. I tell you this from first hand experience
it’s literally called anxiety, it’s a personal issue. We don’t call a small tank “tank anxiety”. I get a week’s worth of commuting out of a single charge. If you owned one for 10 years then you know you can charge at home, and unless you’re driving literally the max every day, which right now is about 250 miles every day, then range anxiety is a non issue because you just plug it in when you get home.
If you are worried about road trips, then you need to analyze your personal road trip habits. I already spoke elsewhere in this post about options if you roadtrip, but even frequently I highly doubt it’s more than 1% of your total trips.
Good thing I wrote up two other options if it doesn’t work for you. It works perfectly fine on our car trips.

I want EVs, but they’re simply not good enough yet. They need to be much better before they can reach 90% adoption

I’m not willing to compromise on my road trip plans. The car can either handle the trip or not. And right now there doesn’t exist an EV that can
