    So, yeah, but the better way to have said that would be 200 miles vs 185 miles means stopping at the 100 vs 200.

    Idk about your area but there are supercharger stations all over the place around here, and many shopping centers have slower free chargers.

    Some highway rest stops have put in charging stations (various levels).

    And the truth is that for most people for most needs, an 80 mile range is more than enough.

    I’ve considered buying an EV “city car” and keeping my ICE for long trips, but even most trips we take are less than 3 hours, so an EV would still work, you’d just have to stop halfway.

      Around town DCFC are irrelevant for most EV owners since they chsgre at some.

      I don’t know if that’s an honest mistake or if you’re just making up things since there are no rest stops with DCFC. It’s against the law to do that on public rest stops.

        It’s a German test by a German news service, rest stops with DCFC units are very common, as they are throughout the rest of Europe

          I should have made it clear I was primarily talking about the DCFC situation in the US. Europe is better off since they’re more population dense and their trips tend to be lower mileage.

        Idk if it’s fast charge but there are highway rest stops with charging stations. I never checked what kind it is

        Apparently there arent, I swear I’ve seen them but I can’t find the one I’m thinking about.
