250 is not enough for most Californians and probably most Texans.
Uh. What Californian or Texan drives more than 90,000 miles per year?
Anyone who lives in Oranage County and drives to LA. Any military service member who lives in Temecula. Anyone who lives in North San Diego County and works downtown.
Because California is so expensive, many own property inland.
Also, California is 500 miles long. You literally can't go anywhere cool in California if you only have an electric vehicle.
Texas... everything cool to do is more than 250 apart.
So... useless. Yes. Not the hyperbolic 90k per year... though it does exist... but useless.
Anyone who lives in Oranage County and drives to LA. Any military service member who lives in Temecula. Anyone who lives in North San Diego County and works downtown.
From the furthest home in Orange County to Los Angeles is 65 miles. Someone would have to make that trip 4 times a day without charging any of the times the car was parked.
Also, California is 500 miles long. You literally can't go anywhere cool in California if you only have an electric vehicle and you don't want to charge for an hour.
FTFY
It's enough for 80% of all Americans and 90% of all Europeans.
250 mile range is for poor people.
LOL. The average American drives 35 miles a day. They would be fine charging once per week. With a fuel cost ranging from 2 to 3 cents per mile economics is going to drive gasoline passenger cars out of the market, but there will always be conspiracy theorists claiming that market forces are some plot against them. I would enjoy finding the conspiracy theories surrounding the replacement of horses with gas cars. I bet it was about how it was a trick to enrich oil and steel barrons.
How does this conflict with my factually accurate statement?
