> People just charge them overnight at home.

I don't have a garage, I live in a building of 7 apartments and no-one has a parking place.

To charge at home I'd need to pull a cable from my second floor window across the road, or sometimes around the corner if I don't find a parking spot in front of the building.

So until we put a ludicrous amount of curb-side charging columns, we need fast charging.

(I seldom use the car tho, long live public transport)

Good point. I was imagining outlets eventually in apartment parking lots. But for the many who don't even have a parking spot, and have to park on the street, we still need some public charging stations.

Apartments could install level 2 chargers in parking spaces or on the sides of buildings, but since they'd be an amenity there's usually not much ROI for them, especially in the current market as no well-kept apartment community is under 95% occupancy and has no issue filling vacancies.

doesnt really work. people don't necessarily park near their apartment. thats the point.
