    In further consideration of @gothitjulie ‘s comments regarding the 266 mile trip which needed “2 comfort stops with rapid recharging”.

    From my own personal requirements on such a journey distance, I would normally only require one stop as a maximum; and it would be where I wanted, not where it needed to be as deemed necessary by the car.

    Clearly you have immense understanding of EV’s and their operational costs, etc,  which I assume to be far greater than many people; but for me, filling up with a liquid fuel every half-thousand miles at one of eight-thousand-plus ‘fully operational’ outlets with a multitude of nozzles at each will suit my needs for a few years yet.

    I do understand the need to change to EV’s, but I find all the mathematics, calculations and metric-units too much for my elderly brain to comprehend. Sticking a nozzle into a hole in the car, pull a trigger and press a button-or-two; and then pay by card – I can cope with.

    Good luck EVers.
