So how many superchargers are out there? Smiley What is easier? To use a charger station available in basically every city or driving 50 km or more to find the next supercharger? Smiley

Superchargers (DC) are for longer journeys, where charging speed is important. In cities or at home the car will be charged via AC while sleeping, being at a shopping mall, working or doing something else. It can't be compared with filling up with petrol...

Superchargers are very convenient place a long side the bigger roads where it is needed when driving outside of the battery range and there are not many places in Europe where you can't drive already today. Tesla have about 400 stations in Europe with about 10 stalls on average for each station and new stations are added every week.

Funny, you actually made my point that Superchargers aren't really necessary or a real buying argument for daily driving.

Your point? I thought you said that an EV is useless because of long recharge times? I've always said that EV is the best alternative for daily commutes to/from work and charge at home overnight. But for making it convenient even for longer trips, a well built out charging network is important.

Conveniently placed? Not in Germany and many other EU countries.

Based on what? Please explain, because this is clearly another misconception from someone who haven't tested it...
