From experience if I can have a car capable of 250ish miles in real life it’ll go twice as far as my bladder allows. That means I can give the car a brief boost while having a comfort stop and continue on without concern. By the time the range is getting close to half way, I’m getting close to a second stop or we’re not from from destination. Either way, we’ve enough to sort out a charge without stress. In a car that just about manages 120 miles, the experience is very different. You’re planning each step of the journey on range and you’re bladder is pretty much in agreement. The stops are longer because you’re not boosting but putting in a good sub20% to 80% each time and it all becomes something of an effort.
For example, I went from home (Cornwall) around London and home again, stopping a total of 5 times, charging a total of 3. If I’d have done what I said above, I’d have charged 4 times as the destination stop didn’t have charging. One stop would have been slightly longer as it would have been a little more than a boost but still not a full charge. I thought about range only nearing the first charge and that was by design, I wanted to go as far as I felt comfortable which was 243 miles to Fleet services in Hampshire. I could easily have charged elsewhere and the Fleet stop would have been half as long.

I'll try to give my honest opinion but am always open to learning.
