Not everyone has heated and cooled garages and cash for an at home charging unit or even a garage.
The Lucid Air and Mercedes EQS could give me range on par with my ICE vehicle in decent weather but electric cars are terrible on long trips where there’s no regenerative breaking to prop up the battery. Also Tesla’s newest battery pack isn’t equal to their old one.
Yeah, it must be tough to find an outlet in the garage and let the car charge up while the driver is sleeping. Eventually this problem will spawn a sequel to Amistad. It's definitely tough if your daily commute is longer than you can charge. Regular 120V outlets charge at
around 3-5 miles per hour, so 30-40 miles over an 8-hr night, in decent weather temps. That's fine if your daily drive is 10 miles down the road. That doesn't work if you're hitting 85 miles round trip (like I am currently). So you'd have to either install a 240V system, or find charging stations somewhere.
As opposed to just stopping and filling up on the way home the night before. Or borrowing the lawn mower's 5gal gas can if there's a real emergency.
