Range anxiety. Charge time.
These are two serious concerns for prospective adopters of
electric car technology.
Charging time and charge rate depend on a variety of
factors. Most figures assume a battery is empty when they “sell” the stats on a
particular car. On the other end, things such as the weather also affect how
far you can go, as well as what type of driving you do. Unless you are taking a
long range trip, you are unlikely to maintain a certain speed continuously. The
figures offered tend to err on the side of being conservative.
