    Most of the time you charge an EV at home or at a level 2 charger nearby.

    I have neither a house, nor I have access to any fast charging station nearby.

    the battery will last the lifetime of the vehicle

    That’s not given some battery packs will last long, some won’t. Warranty on batteries is a sketchy thing because it’s difficult to say whether capacity drop is a design flaw or just wear and tear from heavy usage

    you have no practical knowledge of the topic

    I have as much knowledge as I researched the topic. EV is a big nope for me.

      I always find it funny when people go through a lot of contortions to explain why they don’t want an EV. If you don’t want an EV don’t buy one. Nobody cares.

        What’s the point of writing this comment? Other than because you care about other people’s choice of vehicle?

      Assuming off street parking, you may still convince your landlord or HOA to install chargers - make a business case for it.

      My ex’s HOA just took such a proposal seriously: they got quotes, explained it’s covered by the reserve, and put it up to vote. It did get voted down by the membership, but it’s up to you to convince enough members
