Best to invest in charging stations. Still not enough range before needing recharged. You can fill a tank in less than 5-6 minutes. How long to charge up on the road? And it won't be without cost. They should compromise and build Hybrid versions.
From my experience most gas car drivers tend to wait until E or near E to fill up, then fill to full if they can afford it.
That isn’t exactly how it works with charging and EV. I don’t know about other EVs so I can’t speak to them. Tesla’s software is designed to get a driver to the nearest supercharger with about 20% charge remaining. The vehicle/software is at all times attempting to not allow the driver to run it down to 0% and get stranded. If you do this, you are a moron.
Anyways, the typical charge will go from 15%-20% up to about 75%-80% which takes about 15-20 minutes.
Unless you are on a cross country trip and charging back up to 100% every opportunity. Then it will take longer.
the low half 0-50% takes less time to charge than the high half, 50-100% because of physics. The last 10% take the longest, that’s just how it is.
Lets say you had a 500 mile drive, you would leave your house after charging to 100% the night before, you would go to the available charger at 10-25% remaining, you would charge up to 90%, drive until 10-25% again, fill up to 90%.
All in all you are spending more time at a charging station, but if it is a Tesla Supercharger, it isnt nearly as bad as some in the media would make it seem.
