I own 1 Gas car (Subaru) at a 2nd home (Wyoming) that we have spent a total 1 month so far this year and it has cost me more in gas than owning and charging 2 EV’s (California) full-time.
Please tell me again the advantages of owning a gas car again?
The chademo port is dead. Nobody installs them anymore in Europe so leafs are mostly being relegated to intra city driving. CCS2 is everywhere though.
In the 160 miles between my city and the next city, there’s only 1 chademo location. But there’s also only 1 CCS and 2 Supercharger locations. And the 2 superchargers are pretty close to each other. There are 7 gas stations within 1/2 mile of the highway exit that the chargers are at.
They’re still installing them here in Norway. Not as many as the CCS chargers, but there’s at least one or two dual CHADEMO/CCS charger at every location going up. There’s nearly 100K Leafs alone here, and quite a few other EVs that also use CHADEMO.
My 2014 Berlingo has a 22.5KWh battery, and I have no problems getting around. It just takes a bit longer than with other cars if I want to drive far. Which really doesn’t happen all that often.
Cars with CHADEMO may be a small part of traffic, but they stop to charge more often than other EVs. That’s a fact that many suppliers seem to forget.
