Comment on Fully Charged in Just 6 Minutes – Groundbreaking Technique Could Revolutionize EV Charging
kameecoding@lemmy.world 1 year agothere is stuff other than commute, for example a friend of mine works as a mechanic for agricultural machinery.
so there are days where he goes 400km one way to go do repairs on a piece of equipment.
Of course he is an exception to the rule just wanted to point out that there are jobs where you actually have to drive more than a BEVs range in a day.

Sure, it’s the long tail, but everyone pretends they’re in the tip of it.
I think there’s something else behind it honestly. People have grown used to not planning and making long drives randomly and don’t want to have to plan before making a Louis and Clark length voyage now even if it’s pivotal because of climate collapse.
I don’t think the average American has moved very far from being aghast at Jimmy Carter’s suggestion that they wear a sweater when heating prices were high.
We’re spoiled babies and we don’t intend to change, even if it means the end of all things.
