Fully Charged in Just 6 Minutes – Groundbreaking Technique Could Revolutionize EV Charging::Typically, it takes around 10 hours to charge an electric vehicle. Even with fast-charging techniques, you’re still looking at a minimum of 30 minutes – and that’s if there’s an open spot at a charging station.

        there is stuff other than commute, for example a friend of mine works as a mechanic for agricultural machinery.

        so there are days where he goes 400km one way to go do repairs on a piece of equipment.

          Sure, it’s the long tail, but everyone pretends they’re in the tip of it.

          I think there’s something else behind it honestly. People have grown used to not planning and making long drives randomly and don’t want to have to plan before making a Lewis and Clark length voyage now even if it’s pivotal because of impending climate collapse.

          I don’t think the average American has moved very far from being aghast at Jimmy Carter’s suggestion that they wear a sweater when heating prices were high.

          We’re spoiled babies and we don’t intend to change, even if it means the end of all things.
