I will never own an EV in my life. I’m not at all convinced they help our environment as to what goes into their batteries. I agree with another comment, large condo and apartment complexes have huge parking lots that must accommodate over 300 cars. There is no way they would have the electrical grid system to be able to put in 300 charging stations let alone the huge enormous cost. Also, what about people that live in cities and do not have parking garages or spots at all? They park randomly on the street. Our winter home is in a big city and you just have to park your car on the street. an EV car would never work in those circumstances and that’s how thousands upon thousands live. Once there is any electrical overload, we would have problems. There are already many communities and towns across the country where they’re being told that electricity is becoming such a problem that they are given hours that they can only run the dishwasher and washing machines during the day. How in the world can EV cars added to this this work?
