First Nations have long endured infrastructure challenges, from boil-water advisories to fragiles electricity grids to winter-only roads. But that’s not stopping some from looking to pivot to electric vehicles
My experience in Europe where the EV infrastructure is more developed, long trip are not an issue. I don’t even plan my trip, I just go and charge when I need it.
Right but north Americans get closer, much more regularly.
The point of my comment was to strip away any notion of region or everyday use, and only focus on energy… Density per hour driving, and the available habits of refueling via whatever source.

Edit, wording
Still a 8h driving day will require more charging time than gas refill time, regardless of how many chargers there are.
Acknowledged on your planning point, that’s a huge improvement.
Sure. Nobody disputes that.
But it’s a very small percentage of the population who drives like that.
And for much of the rest of the people, an EV can be a viable option.
