    Good to take breaks when going long distances, it’s a good opportunity for business to pop up also. Make it the journey. Not the destination. Maybe if the charging is able to be dropped to 30 mins would be a better time.

      I’d much rather do three hundred miles (like four and a half hours), fuel and break for twenty minutes, hit the road again. #TourerLife

      It’s easy to charge less than your entire battery. Don’t run it empty and/or don’t charge it full. The top part of the capacity is going to be slow to charge anyway.

      But an hour’s ride on one charge sounds like a very small battery, so it’s weird that the recharge would take that long.

      That’s good in theory, but every hour across vast swaths of the US would be pretty boring. As it is most refuel stops are not places you wanna hangout at longer than you need to. That might shift slightly with more EVs requiring charges more often, but stopping every hour, for an hour to charge, isn’t gonna fly for most folks.
