As always, your observations and comments are astute and well justified. I don’t really have any disagreement. I think the rate of adoption will be dominated by the related factors of charging times and charging network growth.
Without standardization and government support for something akin to the national highway system, won’t we struggle to get the needed infrastructure including possible upgrades to the electrical grid?
