An awful lot of people living in flats/apartments in older buildings in European cities are going to have similar problems. I'd like to try an EV or plug-in hybrid but the practicalities of living in central Edinburgh pretty much make it impossible.

If you only look at the part of the market that buys new cars (as opposed to second hand), the home charging problem becomes a lot smaller.
Once EV have reached a certain saturation amongst new car buyers, the second hand market might take some very interesting turns when that generation of cars is about to change ownership from original buyers with a high rate of home charging availability to second hand buyers with a low rate. If you are one of the comparatively rare second hand buyers with available home charging, you might see a very favorable market.
