I would disagree that home charging is necessary. There are other ways you can enable charging for the drivewayless.
Ie: My homes power supplier has a deal where I can charge my car at a specific companies chargers and only pay my home power rate.
I don’t have anywhere home charging capability. But because of this deal, I haven’t had any problems charging. I have just folded charging into my weekly routine.
Go to the gym, charge it up. If I need to walk the dog and the car is particularly low I’ll go walk the dog around a charger.
And it’s not like there’s a huge amount of chargers from this company around me.
I agree that it's not a huge hurdle, but the great part of having and EV is to be able to skip the charging part entirely for daily commutes. Come home, plug in, drive off the next morning with a full charge, that's what it's about :)
