Most of my car friends won't touch an EV still here in the UK because the infrastructure isn't good enough, and those same friends won't touch a Chinese car either. Only a few have tried Tesla and all have got rid. Currently in the UK if you are a company car person you'd be mad not to get an EV as they are subsidised so much, but equally mad to get one as your only personal car as the charging network is shocking still. When here it is MORE expensive to charge an EV whilst out and about than fuel a petrol car something is seriously wrong
EVs are better cars, and most people are happy with them to get another EV in future. You do need private charging solutions to make it cheaper/convenient, and home solar makes it even better economics. Public charging is something you should plan to use a handful of times per year.
