I don't think the middle of the country will be that far behind. I live in one of those areas where we put a LOT of miles on our cars and frequent long haul trips. Get EV to 300 mile range, 20 minute charge, and sufficient charging infrastructure and adoption will be rapid I think. We are almost there. I pay attention to charging stations as I travel long distances. There have been charging stations at most of our regular refueling stops through the boonies of Montana, Idaho, South Dakota, Wyoming, etc. for years. For a long time, I never saw them in use. Now there seems to be one or two vehicles plugged in whenever I stop for dino-go.
My dilemma now is deciding when to pull the trigger. EV are already a good fit for 95+% of our needs - including the frequent 250+ mile day trips to attend a meeting. They are so close to being a complete replacement for our DD Honda ICE that I think if we hold off replacing the Honda for a couple more years, we'll have an EV that outperforms in pretty much all aspects that are important to us. |
