@Hot Water posted:OK, here is my take/example on battery powered vehicles:
From our house to Orlando, FL it is about 1142 miles, and takes about 17 hours of driving, i.e. 2 days with an overnight stay.
For a future electric vehicle, at about 300 miles, then requiring about 8 to 12 hours of recharge, the following should apply:
1) We can't get out of Illinois the first day, then find a charging station for 8 to 12 hours.
2) The second day would be to Chattanooga, TN, then find a charging station for 8 to 12 hours.
3) The third day would be to Valdosta, GA, then find a charging station for 8 to 12 hours.
4) The fourth day would be into Orlando, and another 8 to 12 hours of recharge.
So,,,,,,,,,if my math is correct, our "week long vacation in Orlando" would be only about 2 days! The rest of the time is driving & recharging. Just my opinion but, being an old guy, I think I'll stick with our internal combustion powered automobiles.
Look up charge rates for DC Fast Charging Sir! Much faster and already available. My new Chevy Bolt has the option installed for DC fast charging.
I believe you get something like 80% battery charge in one hour? Works out better for traveling.
Maybe some people will "stop and smell the roses", instead of just hauling all day.
I just read that as of 2019, there's 5.6 million electric vehicles on the road.
