If it’s about convenience, EVs win. It’s always at a full charge in your drive way in the morning. In the event of an emergency you can get 50 miles in the “tank” in 5 minutes at a supercharger, which are almost everywhere now.

Let's find that driveway in apartment blocks then

My last apartment had EV chargers built in to the parking spots in the US.

And how many have those?

For example, the management company that manages the apartment building where I rent my apartment has sent out a newsletter that they will convert 2000 parking places in their properties by 2025 with the following caveats:

- except where infrastructure doesn't support it

- except where there's not enough power to draw from the building

- except where it's prohibitively expensive to build the infrastructure

They manage 395 buildings with a total of 20 000 apartments.

Funny how "it's easy and convenient" is actually never easy or convenient.

They will reconsider once reality hits and they get overwhelmed by demand.

Until then, they can pull their ideoligical MAGA hats deeper over their foreheads. It won't change reality.
