Ah, so this actually be better than ICE in range, but time to charge will be the next challenge to tackle.
I honestly think both of those "arguments" are stupid anyway, given that you can charge it at home daily. I doubt anyone driving an ICE car empties anything close to their entire fuel tank in a single day.
A big tank in a fueled personal vehicle makes sense because you don't want to have to stop and fill up every day. However, big battery in an EV doesn't really make sense since it should be plugged in every day when you get home for a few hours.
Exactly. I think a small, light and cheap battery plus a gas range extender for long trips makes way more sense than carrying around 2000 pounds of battery that only gets fully used once a year.
At the very least, vehicle batteries and fuel tanks should be limited to prevent drivers from driving too long without a break. It's kind of reckless to put 600 mile battery in a personal vehicle.
