Charging time is progressing nicely. Note that charging rate from 20-80% is much faster than 80-100%. With the onset of 500+ mile batteries, one can recharge 300 miles in <20 minutes, a reasonable rest stop after 4-5 hours driving. That’s pretty close to gas fill up, balanced by a gas car ALWAYS needing to fill at a station, vs an EV is usually topped off every morning without deliberate waiting.

Wonderful stuff this electricity. One plugs into a socket and “voila” charging.

Must be free I don’t hear anyone talking about how the juice gets there.

Oh, I know it comes from wind and sun. Excuse me.

I’d love to get a load of that, but for all that to work and also have “renewable power”, you would need nuclear power plants and that great bane of environ-MENTAL-ists, hydropower, in addition to solar and wind.
