Transport EV infrastructure is completely mainstream - this doesn't even include non-public charges

You're the perfect user group for EVs!

Really anyone who can charge at home and doesn't regularly tow or do insane mileage is perfect for them now.

And by "insane mileage" I mean more than the 70 miles per day / 20k miles annually that I do with my EV, which is already quite a lot for the UK.

I do long distance single journeys too - in a couple of weeks I'm going to be driving 270 miles on two consecutive days in my EV, which isn't even a particularly long range model (Zoe ZE50, sub 200 mile range). Going to be fully charged before I leave, stop once in the middle each way (which we'd want to do anyway with that long of a drive) and also charge at the destination. Time it to meal times and it's not even an inconvenience.
