America passed the EV 'tipping point' -- but many buyers still want gas

[Liberal In Texas]

93. EVs have as part of the NAV system a button you can push and a map

or list will pop up showing where all the nearest (or even farthest) charging stations are from your present location. It will tell you distance and route. There are also free phone apps available that will do the same thing.

I'm not sure what you mean by the look of EV options, I've got about all the bells and whistles you could ask for in a car. Plus it looks like a standard smaller SUV. I have a 2019 model purchased in late 2018 and have had nothing but good luck with it. Any minor mechanical problems were fixed under the 100K warranty. And it has a kick-ass AC system that was pretty nice to have this summer in 112º days.

This fear of being stuck somewhere needing to find a charging station is blown way out of proportion. I'm pretty average. I drive around town and a charge with any full EV would keep me happy for days. My PHEV has a 24 mile range (it's really about 30) and I almost always drive everywhere on battery. The only time one needs to worry about finding charging stations is when you are on the road for a long trip. And for that you can plan ahead if you feel the need.

It's really nice starting out the day with the equivalent of a full tank of gas and not having to go to the gas station to do it.
