I don't care about any particular EV brand. Trying to use battery powered EVs for such purposes means that they need to built with heavy, oversized, extra hazardous batteries. The responsible, proper use case for BEVs is short trips with plenty of time for charging at home or work.
And women should stay home and cook. Amirite?
So your suggestion is basically families should own an EV just for getting around home.. and a gas guzzler for long distance travel? IMO the ideal should be a slow phase out of the gas cars.
Or you know... instead of needing super heavy batteries... they could have smaller batteries... if charging stations become common enough that people can relatively easily find places to stop and charge on long trips.
Batteries and liquid fuel are both hazardous in terms of catching fire, do you mean something else?
