Even at 9 minutes, it’s gonna be too long in many places where lines will be very long waiting to r3charge- people get pissed off over taking 5 minutes to top off a tank of gas ⛽️ and lines are already long at regular gas stations- adding to the time will just cause all kings of anger it seems. Yeah, 9 minutes is better than 1/2 to recharge, but tempers are gonna flare terribly
Also, is that 600 miles WITHOUT running anything like air conditioner or heater? Gets mighty hot in places, and freezing cold in other places.
When I was a kid, HEATERS in cars was an OPTION. Air conditioning was a dream only the rich could afford. Americans have gotten soft..................
Local predators will LOVE the targets sitting immobilized for 10 minutes or more.
When you can partially fill your gasoline tank in under 3-5 minutes and scoot [and you're probably not on empty], you're less of a target.
If you're charging an electric vehicle, it's probably because you NEED to.
Again, real target-y. No thanks.
A lot of these e-vehicle lovers are 40th parallel people - they live below the 40th parallel, and don't have to worry much about the cold killing their cars. Good for them.
