> Range matters a lot more in EV because the charging stations are much rarer than gas stations.

The classic topic in every EV "debate." Gas car drivers can't imagine having the equivalent of a 7 gallon tank. EV drivers can't imagine having a tank that isn't full every morning when you wake up.

It's not about whether it's full, but whether you can successfully make it to a faraway destination in a reasonable amount of time (& not adding hours & days to the trip).

It's not really a "debate", just a consideration. We recently got an EV, and generally love it, but long trips are more difficult. We ended up taking the gas car because the EV would've added 5-6 hours to the trip, due to a lack of fast chargers along the routes we needed to take and the 200-ish mile range of our car.

For around town, it's wonderful though.

My current EV is comparable to my last gas car in terms of range - about 300 miles (Kia EV6) vs 270 miles (Toyota C-HR) (I'm talking the miles I saw in my use, not the spec sheet)
