Cannot even begin to consider one of these until the US charging infrastructure catches up.
Watched an interesting video with Schmee where he's trying to get to Germany and back from the UK in his Taycan Turbo, and it's almost comical how many glitches and hiccups he encounters. At one point he does a calculation and figures that it costs almost the same to charge the car is it would for a full tank of petrol in his Ferrari Lusso.

I don't understand how the government can be pushing EV's on us so much without helping the charging network (outside of Superchargers) improve greatly.

I can't see driving more than 100 or so miles each way with the M50. My 335i saw maybe one long road trip in 11 years. I already have Level 2 charging at home.

Additionally, the iX has about double the range compared to the Taycan (and it is much more efficient, sub 20kWh/100km vs almost 30kWh/100km), so you don't have to charge as often. Nonetheless, for roadtrips I still share your concerns about the infrastructure (although here in Europe it seems to be better than in the US, in Nordics it's a non-issue). |

I would imagine pretty decent due to the regenerative braking but still a porker

What's up with such a low top speed, guessing that's why they only bothered with H rated tires on the 20s and 21s?

It shouldn't matter, higher speeds are always going to kill the range, no matter your fuel source.

Without some serious assistance from the government, I do not know how this is going to be fixed. When people are not doing road trips (which will be 90 percent+ of the time for most people), they will just charge at home. If the only time people need a charging station is when they go on road trips or long drives, the demand is not going to be there to sustain a large number of charging stations being around.

It's going to take a while for providers to deploy DCFC's in significant quantities.... how long has Tesla been working at it?? Another issue is can the grid support it.... DCFC's (i.e. Tesla, et al) need multiple megawatts of power per location.... there are a LOT of places that can't even support a single MW.... so utilities have to run new lines, increase substation capacity, etc. -- that takes time and money. Thankfully there are incentives at the Federal and State levels that will hopefully help increase adoption and deployment of the necessary infrastructure.

We only need chargers at strategic locations for long trips to satisfy needs for the majority. |

None of these options are acceptable to most drivers. That is why I say for the vast majority of drivers with today's sparse charging infrastructure an EV is not an acceptable solution. EV's are still a toy for those with disposable income and enthusiasts who enjoy new technology. Until charging is as easy as fueling most people that only care about getting from point A to point B couldn't care less what powertrain they do it with. |

That's why my EV cars are not considered road trip cars. Or at least not a long road trip.
