I would disagree. We have a massive interstate highway system, regularly used by most Americans. Range is critical. The tow companies around here in south and central FL regularly get dead EV's to transport. That has nothing to do with "consumer taste" and everything to do with real limitations.
I drove by a dozen pickups and minivans dead on the road yesterday going up highway 51 a hundred miles.
I would argue that
1. Having a single charger in a 250 mile radius
2. Poor planning
Have more to do with stranded cars than anything
