Please, if you need HOURS to recharge to go 300 Miles you own a commuting vehicle, period... just because you have a situation within range and hours to wait for the recharge doesn’t make you a non commute vehicle.. When you can drive 500-600 Miles in 8-10 hours with stops, get back to me.

True, there’s really no way to “equate filling your tank” with “charging up,” although the Teslas now can get a 50% charge in 20 minutes I’ve been told.
Besides, I am a Corvette guy. I like IC engines. But you need to go to the local drag strip and watch the 4-wheel drive Teslas blow off everything there that’s street legal, and not make a sound doing it.
And here’s a video of a “shootout” between the three hybrid supercars! This is what you get when you couple around 700hp worth of IC engine power and a couple hundred horsepower’s worth of electric drive! These vehicles are astonishing!
