    Won’t most EV users be home charging anyway?

    What percentage are really looking for distance road trips?

    More dumb analysis, FFS wake up!

      That’s the brilliance of it - electricity retailers are already offering really cheap overnight rates to take advantage of baseline power supplies.

      At most, I can’t see us ever doing more than one massive road trip per month that would require public fast charging, and more realistically it would only be once a quarter.

      So ~4-8 fast charges a year, and ~350+ days of home charging.

      This claim was made in every country against EVs. Is there a single one where it held true? Sure, modernizing the net costs money but it seems that even the most buerocratic countries stayed in top of it.
