Sunfish, we don't have 50+ years. For most people living in cities and large towns plugging into a 10A 240V socket will suffice most of the time. How often do they drive 250km in one day? Once a fortnight? Once a month? 500km+ range EVs exist now and it won't be too long before that trickles down to the cheaper end of the market. What percentage of Australians live in 10,000+ towns and cities? 90%. Sure there will be outliers but a large majority would manage a large proportion of the time without resorting to charging away from home or at slower chargers. The average annual distance travelled in Australia by passenger vehicles is 11,100km or 213km/week.
