A recent survey shows not all Canadians are ready to make the switch to an electric vehicle as they have concerns about charging stations, cold weather and battery life.

The point is every complaint you have to say you can never use electric already exists and if they mattered to you then you wouldn’t buy a gas vehicle
You don’t need to charge overnight, plug in and charge while you are eating or pissing them get in and go
I will admit, looking io charging times, half an hour isn’t so bad, now that BC hydro has put in/activated their level 3 charging stations.
When I purchased my current vehicle, there was not any non-tesla lvl 3 stations available, and even then there was only 1.
That being said, the available lvl 3 stations aren’t near an amenity I would normally stop at, and would add nearly an hour to my current 12 hour round trip.
And again, my biggest problem with full electric vehicles in my situation is the charge time and charger availability, if the chargers available weren’t for any reason, I would be SOL - and charger availability is a lot lower than gas stations even at the best of times
Going to become more common than gas stations eventually which as for “next vehicle” is relevant
It’s just a “whatever” thing
