4. America is a giant land mass and Americans want 500 miles of range when most countries are ok with 200.

Most Americans don’t drive anywhere near that far.

the range would be for more than one trip.

anecdotally i had a 2011 Nissan Leaf 1st year it came out. Was neat. I have not gone back to electric. I sold it for $800 with 90k miles on it.
