Re:EVs are depreciating much faster than gas-powered cars by yatopifo on Saturday October 18, 2025 @11:44AM (#45628217)
It may take only 20 min to charge to 80% but in practice you might have to wait until a charger becomes available or drive around to find one that's available.

That was not my experience on the single road trip I've done since getting this new EV. I charged 7 times in total, and did not have to wait for a charging bay at all.

I'm honestly not that bothered by it. I'm very much a "type B" road tripper. I don't care if it takes me an extra hour or two to get there, as long as I'm having a good time. Heck, I might go down some random road named "Old Priest's Grade" and add an extra hour to the trip just because the descent has beautiful views.
