I’m sure charging stations exist, but I’ve only ever seen one with my own eyes once (Brazil, major city)
In South Africa, I have seen plenty in the big cities, but nothing on the countryside.
Meanwhile in Europe I take off for road trips with my EV that has very mid range, fully trusting there’s gonna be a station when I need one, at first I used to plan the trips around charges but quickly figured out it’s not necessary. If you have a newer model with big range then it’s really a total non-issue. Sucks to hear Brazil isn’t there yet but I’m sure the infrastructure will catch up soon.
I saw BYDs everywhere when I was there, but I don’t recall seeing stations, now that you mention it
Charge at home. I think most people do that. A quick unscientific stat looked up seems to indicate 80% charge at home in the US. Probably similar in other countries?
