Only real question is charging network… I don’t have any experience with non-Tesla fast chargers… but from the looks of things, the 3rd-party networks are pretty lacking…. So that will be a big problem for people. It‘s not like you can get AAA to bring you a gallon of gas when you run out… flat-bed tow to the nearest (working) L3 charger :P There isn‘t a charger on every corner, either.

Charging a non Tesla car is absolutely a problem. I charged my i3 probably 5 times in 5 years away from home. It was just such a hassle. The chargers are often broken or out of service and they are extremely expensive. And in popular places like the airport, there is never enough availability. And if you can manage to find a free charger, odds are that a Nissan Leaf will be hogging it indefinitely.
