> 30 minutes (a much more usual break on a long 3 hour trip).

I am fascinated by this comment, because I don't consider a 3 hour trip to be particularly long. Certainly not long enough to require a half hour break in the middle of it.

That said, "range anxiety" isn't the reason that I won't buy an EV at all. Most of my driving would be well covered by EV ranges, and I'd be fine renting a car or using other transportation methods for the occasional long trip.

I personally know my attention span will not be 100% driving for 3 hours straight, a short break is necessary and parking, ordering a coffee can take a bit longer than you'd think.
