I have an EV and so does my wife, we road trip all the time, the biggest issue is recharging times. Sitting 30 mins for a charge is fine every couple hours, but those level 2 chargers and slow DC chargers just kill all momentum on a road trip. Electrify America has decent chargers, and the most up to date ones work better than the last generation, but neither car can take their top speed charging, if they did it would be a much better experience.
You will not have that problem with Tesla though. All chargers are 150kW+.
Not true. V1 superchargers are 75kW.
Yeah right, and they are a big problem. I haven’t encountered a single V1 super charger in Europe after 4 years.
I have only ever seen one in the US and it was surrounded by V2 and V3.
