No one flushes their toilets for 8 hours together.
Like I said, we already have problems in many areas when the ACs turn on in the summer between 9am-8pm. Not every AC turns on at the same precise time, but during those daylight hours a lot of them are on at the same period of time and we have power problems.
Right now EVs have it easy, there currently exists a fuel infrastructure to take the energy load. Right now we have a dual system, in the future it will be a single system of electricity only, no hedge.

Nobody in those areas is going to be charging their car at that time. Electricity is over 50 cents a kWh during those hours. It's the equivalent of paying about $6.75 a gallon for gas.
