I'm so thankful for content like this. I've been in the market for an electric car and he's covered topics that seem to stop me and others:

range anxiety
recharge anxiety
and now charging bandwidth

It's becoming clear that we can't continue to compare electric cars to gas cars. They are different enough that you can't just do a side by side comparison.

Cars seem to be good "general use" vehicles whereas electric cars are more geared toward commuting. I've had to learn to measure an electric car based on my daily use vs the occasional road trip.
