I assume you live in the US.

Because in almost every other country there is a real lack of decent charging infrastructure.

Especially outside of densely populated areas.

I think Europe and China aren't doing so bad on charging infrastructure.

It's not bad but it's nowhere near what the US has.

Not just availability of chargers but also the average kW rate.

The following link says 5x more chargers in EU than US (and twice as many EVs):

Rapid charging is now widely available (certainly could be more)
