    I’m not here to disagree with what you’re saying, but I do like to point out; I think the low number of planned charging stations currently planned for the next year and built over the last year is mostly due to the war between CCS and NACS. Now that NACS has won out I think we’re going to see a boost in planned stations again as they prepare to switch. We’ve just been in a holding pattern while trying to figure that whole thing out. I thought for sure CCS would win because Tesla wouldn’t want to give up their charger… oh well, we all win!

      With more J-1772 chargers around we wouldn’t need as many CCS/NACS chargers except on highways for long-distance travel. Does NACS include Tesla Destination chargers? Genuinely not sure.

      It’s not the range or speeds that’s the problem, it’s charger availability and reliability.
