    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.

        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.
