Hertz to Sell 20k EVs in Shift Back to Gas-Powered Cars

No doubt? :-)

Norway has 503 Superchargers, 1 per 11,000 people.

California has 307, 1 per 130,000.

I haven't checked NZ or Oz, or looked at a map for Norway. There are also 10 times that many non-Tesla chargers, of which some will be the highest power.

All three countries have 230V domestic electricity, so in the worst case you can charge at about 2.5kW (more, e.g. 3kW, if you're more confident of the wiring).

You could even be so lucky to have 400V available in new housing in Norway, allowing up to 22kW home charging.

Thanks for the correction. BTW when I mention housing, I meant hotels :) Of course chargers at hotels are common, but, again, one more thing to worry about (especially if it's pay-per-use and requires some app/membership situation).
