At the moment EV cars have a rang of what, 300 to 500 km ? So enough for normal commuting but not for a big road trip.
But you can see it coming that battery capacity per weights and cost will come to the point that a typical EV will have 1000 km or more range. At which point the range is larger than what can be driven in a single day. So then theoretically, when you start out with a full charge in the morning there is no need anymore to charge or top up during the day.
So will at this point all fast charging networks, gas station like charging structures etc have become obsolete ? When you can charge up during the night, either at home, the hotel you're staying etc , and drive for more than humanly possible in 1 day, what is the point of (gas)stations ?
Does this mean a few years from now all 150kW fast chargers etc will be broken down again ? I mean, probably you'll need like 200 to 250kWh for a days driving, a puny 25kWh charger can full up the battery overnight...
Thougts ?
