Would have been a better article without the hyperbole on gas vehicle range.

500 miles! Even the best long range vehicles I have had seldom have more than a 450 mile range, and that is running the vehicle to fumes!

Effective change to refuel is about 350 to 400 miles.

Hyperbole?

The author clearly cited his Honda Accord for the mileage numbers.

Honda claims: "2022 Honda Accord is capable of delivering around 444.0 city miles and around 562.4 highway miles with one tank of gas".

The author compares his EV experience to a common as dirt Honda Accord. That's hardly "hyperbole".

There’s also how long one’s personal holding tank will last.
