thats what will happen. Think about farmers, people in more rural areas, homesteaders, etc... There is no high capacity supercharger network there and isn't likely to be. ICE machinery is incredibly important to them.

A total conversion to electric isn't feasible in a lot of places like that.




Some people will have niche cases for sure, but I've talked to a number of farmers who drive EVs both on the road and on their farm and are really happy with it. They do get electric service too, that's not just something only city dwellers get.


I dunno if "farmers as a whole" is acceptable, nor necessary. I was just speaking of NYC garbage trucks.
