"because nobody will pay for a charger installation in a rented flat"

Where did you get this idea? People pay for an AC, a conciege, a cycle room, a roof terrace, a fucking gardener but they wont pay for a charging point? Also why does it have to be rented?

Most people in Europe lives in rented flats. A charger installation is rather expensive for most of us outside of a few selected countries.

People in Switzerland, Norway, or maybe some part of Germany may have no problem. For me it's a rather heavy price.

Not to mention dumping capital on an asset which isn't even yours. No thanks.
