Fully Charged in Just 6 Minutes – Groundbreaking Technique Could Revolutionize EV Charging::Typically, it takes around 10 hours to charge an electric vehicle. Even with fast-charging techniques, you’re still looking at a minimum of 30 minutes – and that’s if there’s an open spot at a charging station. If electric vehicles could charge as swiftly as we refill traditional gas vehicles, it wo
It’s double the recommendation in a best case scenario. It’s 4x as long a wait if you have to get in a queue.
I’ve never had a rest stop that takes more than 10 minutes and that’s if I have my toddler and wife.
If you want to stay forcing some drive time limits on people go ahead and try. But saying YOU get tired so everyone else must only be able to handle 2 hours at a time is insane. I’d be far far more tired showing up to my destination after an extra hour or two off driving and probably getting dark at that time.
I call BS. I have given diaper changes to my kids on the road that take more than 10 minutes. I won’t even mention lunch breaks, dinner breaks mid morning snack breaks, pooping breaks etc.
Diaper changes are a 45 second affair, 3 minutes if its a mess, and we’re past that personally. We’re in and out for toilets and have our own food packed. I commonly don’t need to use the rest room and the wife will take care of everything while I hang out at the pump and pick her up. 5 minutes.
Not everyone lolygags around

how about you recognize that your use case is very much in the minority and covered by alternative solutions like Hydrogenation powered cars?
sure you might want a car with 1000 km range and you can get that along with semi-trucks you can hop on the Hydrogen platform , but statistics show that the vast majority of driving people do is well within the ranges of current BEVs, so why make all cars carry around all that extra weight, the expensive batteries when the vast majority of it won’t ever be used?

da fuck.
How often do you go to these remote areas? how many of these areas are out of reach from you on a full charge?
except there is more cost to a double battery size than just money, look up how the metals are mined for these batteries.
Doesn’t matter, it’s gonna be used for semi-trucks anyway, it can be manufactured anywhere and solar energy is abundant so is water, much more abundant than what we use for the batteries we have at the moment.
you also have to start to factor in road wear if you start doubling battery capacity.

by road wear I mean that if you start adding more and more weight it will significantly increase infrastructure costs of keeping the roads maintained
it’s a fitting response to your non-conrete statement about regen braking.
Oh so it’s not even you are arguing for, it’s these mystical other people.
okay, what the fuck does a non-product like cybertruck has to do with anything?
Are there people like that? I am from Slovakia which doesn’t have a great infrastructure and I don’t believe there are even people like that here.
what the fuck does desert has to do with anything?
no you dont…
