WSJ out with an article where the author finds that — surprise! — EVs are useful today even without as many charging stations as there are gas stations:

The surprise was that—for seven days of errands, pickups, and even a lengthy road trip—being limited to charging at the slowest possible rate was just fine, and my inability to fast charge away from home was a nonissue.

First — yes, the average American driving range is so low, 30-40 miles a day, that a gas car with a 3-gallon tank would be sufficient for most daily needs, much less an EV with a 200-300 mile range.

Second, it’s nice to see the Journal have at least one reporter understand that EVs aren’t just to fight climate change, although that matters, they are actually nice cars in their own right.
