I just had this discussion in another thread. Slow charging isn’t great but most people don’t drive 50+ miles every single day. I found on Tesla’s site they say a standard household outlet gets you 2-3 miles per hour of range. That’s 30 miles or so in the time most people are home overnight.
A 240v connection apparently charges 10x quicker for people that wanted more assurance, but either way, most of time you’d be leaving topped up or close to it. This seems more of an issue for people living in apartment buildings without access to home charging at all.
It still takes a few minutes to refuel a 15 gallon tank in a sedan. You don’t have an extra minute or two?
