And just how far can you go on a 50% charge? I don`t know about you, but when I gas up my truck, I don`t fill it to 1/2 a tank. Maybe you are fine with taking a 75 minute lunch breaks every time you need to charge an electric car (assuming that there is an available charging station waiting for you to arrive. Can you make a reservation in advance to secure a charger?) While you are knoshing on your gluten free, organic tofu quiche, waiting for your planet savers batteries to charge, I will be another 80-100 miles toward my destination.
