  1. I have a Tesla model 3. We have 250kWh chargers here locally now, which means a full/%80 charge in 30 minutes flat. I have a Tesla wall charger at home. Now, how many times a year do I use the fast charger? 25 times? 30 times? How about usually less than 3 times a year. Less during Covid, for obvious reasons. Even on long trips, usually I "pump up" the charge before leaving (to %100), then even on long trips I only have to charge one time on the road. How long do I spend waiting for a charger while on those long trips? Usually 0 minutes, 0 seconds. Why? Because we have to eat. And finding a charger with a restaurant next to it is a no-brainer. So how long have I actually waited to charge my car since buying it in 2018? about 0 minutes, 0 seconds. This issue of charging time is way overblown by people WHO DON'T OWN EVS. If you actually own one, and have reasonably used it, the answer is: charging time is a total non-issue.
