[QUOTE="fts, post: 1710263, member: 50537"] Although your perspective is a common one, it may be short-sighted. Most EVs today do suffer from long charging times, but I think that is changing. The newer EVs are coming out with either 800- or 900-volt electrical architecture. For example the Lucid and even the Porsche/Audi. I do not know which architecture the Lightening Rivian is/will be using. With the 800-volt architecture, the Audi etron is able to charge to about 60-80 miles range in ~7 mins using the 350 kW chargers. The Lucid, using the 900-volt architecture, is able to add 100 miles in less than 6 mins. Furthermore, home charging rates are already pretty good on 40-amp circuits with intelligent chargers. Charging overnight is looking to be a very viable option as well. I think these numbers will keep improving in a short period of time. So, the EV future may not be as dark as you make it out to be. At the same time, I do agree that EVs will not take over completely in 2-3 years, but by 2030, the projections of new vehicles sales are estimated to be more than 50%. [/QUOTE]
