Totally disagree. I think fast charging is the biggest roadblock we have in making electric cars more popular. Just think how much time filling cars with petrol takes, charging should also take similar time. 10-15 mins would be ok if you also can have breakfast in that time.
But you don’t need it. You need a vehicle that gets you a to b. You can charge when you aren’t driving.
Electric cars will be common once they reach price parity with ice. Why buy an ice that helps prop up the profits of oil cartels.
If price can get close to ice with good enough range. Cuts out every going to a petrol station again and solar panels will reduce your transport costs. Plus added bonus of less moving parts and no oil changes ever again.
Plus less noise.
It doesn’t matter if 95% of the time you don’t need fast charging. When making a major purchase like a car, most people will consider their extreme use cases. Whether that’s logical or not doesn’t factor in
I totally agree - kinda, the truth is there are various common use cases for cars. A cheap little run around that slow charges over night would be great for a lot of people but it wouldn’t suit everyone, having a wide range of options is a great thing.
And where would the vehicle sit and charge while I’m not driving it?
