EV’s aren’t terrible. The public charging infrastructure is terrible. You have to have a charger at home for it to make sense. Imagine owning an iPhone and not being able to charge at home. Any device you can’t charge at home is a disaster, and since most people don’t need to use public chargers, EVs still work for a lot of people. If you drive enough where you have a home charger and need to public charge often, you probably should get a hybrid.
First off, the installation of a level 2 charger at home will cost more than $1,000. It would only be capable of 7kwh speed, which I'd 10 hours for 80% charge on a 77kwh battery. You'd barely get 200 miles. So "a lot of people" that evs would work for must own a home with a garage. You assume a lot of people don't live in cities. Public charging is a necessity in the city. EVs are a failure and this lifestyle is for people who are ngmi.
According to the U.S. Department of Energy, 80 percent of EV charging happens at home. EVs are a premium product with premium costs associated with the price of the vehicle and repairs. That doesn’t make them a failure. They are a terrible choice without a home charger at this time. Hybrid wins on value.
@@justinedward4742 Yes as people with an ev have said you need to have a charger at home and be near a dealership where you bought the car if the car needs fixing and when they do work n it as it can be a while until you get the car back, so basically evs aren't really a failure but they are kinda overpriced for what you are getting at times.
