More populated cities are making EV harder, because apartments are mostly missing charging spots and only in some new building a handful of parking sport per building have AN OPTION to pay to install charger. And offices are also mostly missing charging spots too, plus remote work factor. The leaders of EV adoption are countries with rich people in personal houses with cheap (per kW) personal chargers. Or simply rich people.

A smart government would mandate that all new apartment blocks have at a minimum the electrical infrastructure in place to support the installation of charging points.

I was recently renting an apartment and when I asked building managers about this kind of thing they just blinked at me slowly like they had just now heard of electric cars existing.
