Without a tremendous technological revolution, I can’t see EV’s being anywhere near practical without a universal power source being at-the-ready at power stations…quick change standardized batteries. Or a mini-reactor power source.
I would hope every substation would have EV charging stations. Substations have direct access to the high voltage lines.
I respectfully disagree. Having an EV is practical in some cases, particularly if you're married and need 2 cars anyway. I wouldn't think about an EV if I was single. But since I'm married and I was about ready to replace my wife's old car anyway, getting an EV for her has worked for us. We still have an ICE pickup for the things ICE cars are good for too. Basically having both an EV and an ICE is the best of both worlds.
