Meanwhile, ICE cars get about 400 miles in about 2 minutes.
People tend to eat at least one meal during a day’s travel.
Chargers could be placed at highway exit restaurants and at motels.
A motel charger would typically top up the batteries and a restaurant charger would come close.
If you are in the Interstate highway gasoline business plan to get into the restaurant and fast charging business.
The ‘greenest’ way to charge is often going to be during the middle of the day while your EV is parked while you are at work since solar panel electricity will most likely be available.
Expect to see signs with EV kwh charging prices that fluctuate during the day. The prices will typically drop (because of an excess home solar panel electricity) from 10am to about 11:30am, rise for lunchtime and take a dip from 1:30pm to about 3:30pm.
If you spend enough for lunch (and to pay for your electricity and charger time), your EV charging will be indirectly paid via the restaurant hosting the chargers.
This country is probably going to be run by Biden’s puppet masters for a long time.
They are not afraid to shut down non-compliant businesses as we have witnessed in recent years.
“”solar panel electricity will most likely be available””
So.....sunshine will also, most likely, be available?
Perhaps the solar panel electricity will have a backup plan - wind energy, because, as everyone knows, the wind is always available.
"These Are The Slowest Charging EVs On The Market Today"
FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponent’s Argument
The charging time report is flawed imo.
More specifically, the study overlooks that EV batteries take even longer to charge in cold weather (correction welcome).
EV CHARGING IN COLD TEMPERATURES COULD POSE CHALLENGES FOR DRIVERS (non-FR; 7.30.2018)
On top of taking extra time to charge batteries in cold weather, EV batteries are already known to not hold charge as long in such weather.
I can add 810 (highway) miles to my diesel sedan in about 4 minutes.
Rivian R1T Launch Edition (21-inch wheels) - Average time to add 100 miles of range: 19 mins
Rivian R1T Launch Edition (20-inch wheels) - Average time to add 100 miles of range: 19 mins 3 seconds
so the 20” wheels adds 3seconds???
Whether they know it or not, only people who hate the planet as much as themselves, and beyond all reason, buy electric vehicles.
No exceptions.
You are behind one, two, three others so increase the recharge times!
Mist of the existing homes in this country still do not have 200 A electric service.
How in Hades are these folks supposed to charge an EV?
Continuing proof, as if it were needed, that EVs are about saving the planet the same way CoupFlu vaxxes are about protecting public health.
