For me I always think about what it would take to go 100% EV, my only means of transportation. If I were to get an EV that could tow my travel trailer, then I might have to stop to charge way more often. Also, all the charging stations I've ever been to aren't pull through, so it's difficult to charge while towing. But I agree, going from point A to point B along major highways and stopping every 200 miles for potty break/charge is perfectly fine. We want to snowbird from Pacific NW to Arizona and I would love to do it in an EV.It’s also that the ICE vehicles are far less efficient, thus weather conditions and speed don’t have as much of an impact on overall range.
I’m personally quite happy with the current distance between chargers and the road trip charging time which for me is typically 18 to 21 mins. I need a break and have plenty to do so the time goes by in a flash. Fortunately the car sends me an almost done notice if I haven’t made it back. Charging time/speed is not a concern. Having chargers in more destination locations and later technology superchargers is always welcome.
