    It’s a little overstated but it’s not wrong.  The charging infrastructure for public charging is completely inadequate for disabled drivers.  It’s a gamble if your chosen charging spot will have one disabled accessible charger, let alone whether some perfectly able-bodied person has decided their need is more important. Then there’s still the potential that cable weight means that the car may still remain uncharged.

    Unless a permanent solution is found that means a disabled driver can roll into any charging facility and have the same opportunity to charge their car as anyone else, then BEVs will be a serious challenge for those wheelchair users who travel without an able-bodied passenger.
