An idling gas engine may be annoyingly loud, but that’s the price you pay for having WAY less torque available at a standstill.
I took a 6 hour trip with my mom, sis and her kids halfway across the country to hit the beaches earlier this month.
I have a diesel car, I could have done the trip both way without stopping at a gas station. I still stopped 20 minutes both ways for a coffee and snacks and stretching my legs.
The charge time is an absolute non issue.
Yet, people still say it’s a barrier to buying an EV. They must be making it up.
