It does not take 40 minutes in modern EVs. It takes like 20 minutes, max. It certainly does not take hours at L3 chargers like the misleading claim the person in your quote makes. I think that’s also what you’re missing: this is a marginal improvement overall, other than range itself. Once again, the problem is not battery tech, it’s charging access. L3 charging access needs to be improved, not battery tech. If we upgrade our battery tech now, it will only make the problems you are mentioning worse by reducing the amount of available chargers. This will not work with our current L3/L2 tech, and you want to make the L3 charging situation you’re talking about even worse. We simply do not have our infrastructure in a good enough place where we can accommodate this technology.
Research and quote things all you want, it doesn’t change the fact that you have never personally owned one and therefore should not be speaking on this subject like you are an authority. This isn’t the first time we’ve had this “chat” and I’m sure I’ll see you claiming you need to drive 450+ miles in a single sitting the next time this gets posted and we can go in circles again.
For now, I see that you think your needs and wants are what everyone else’s are (this is not the case), and that because you think you know best (again, without ever owning an EV) you will never admit that maybe your need to drive 450+ miles is unnecessary with today’s EVs and that it would cost unfathomable amounts to upgrade cars and infrastructure to even use this tech. See you in the next post, I can’t wait for you to tell me more about how I can’t road trip in my EV even though I’ve done it across the country!
