I don't think anyone is disagreeing, there's just a disconnect on which DCFC charging is being talked about. You're talking about road trip DCFC, while some of us thought you meant around-home DCFC. Both are right -- we need more road trip DCFC between cities, but for around-home we need to emphasize L2 (homes, apartments, workplaces, etc). Also L2 as overnight destinations (hotels).For all the people disagreeing with me, what is the #1 reason people give you for why they won’t buy an ev yet? I know for me it’s the perception that range is an issue.
“They’re probably fine for around town, but I drive to my parents 700 miles away twice a year. They can’t make that trip yet.”
I’m not disagreeing that most of us recognize that charging from home is actually preferable, and we recognize that there are options to charge on trips if you do a little planning. But there are tons of people out there that still can’t wrap their heads around those concepts.
