EV Charging Doesn't Need to Be as Fast as Gas, Ionna CEO Says

Nobody stops to fuel their vehicle taking gasoline, gets out, rushes as fast as possible, puts as much fuel in the car as possible, and gets back in the car and drives away

This almost reads as satire. Like this has to be a joke, right? No way this guy can really be this stupid (or out of touch), right?

He’s saying most folks take something like 10 minutes taking their leasurely time. So that is the goal for ev charging

I literally pump my gas looking at the time because i need to be somewhere, i’ve literally never leisurely gotten gas, i dont even know what that means. Like youre bored at home and decide to go get some gas??

There’s a huge difference between charging in town while you’re out for other things, and refueling while on a longer road trip.

If you’re in town with an EV, you theoretically never need to charge because you all have a full battery when leaving your house.

If you’re stopping after three hours on a longer trip, then you’ll likely need to attend to your biological needs at the same time, including just walking around and stretching your legs.
