      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.

      Of course he is an exception to the rule just wanted to point out that there are jobs where you actually have to drive more than a BEVs range in a day.
