I’d argue we effectively do have this, or close enough. Obviously I’d always want better but
- normally time doesn’t matter: plug in overnight and it’s always full by morning. Then it’s more of an infrastructure problem in that not everyone has a place to plug in
- on a trip, at a trip charger, my cars trip planning only asks 10-15 minutes of charging to stay on the steep part of the charging curve. If you use the restrooms, you’re almost there

We can and should have that now. Prices are getting closer to parity so a few more years with incentives would have done it. Or, if we got rid of protectionism and allowed competition, we’d be well past cost parity
