100kW+ chargers are insanely expensive. It is cheaper to drive ICE than charge on those.

Uh... Where in the world are you seeing this? And what kind of mpg, miles / kWh, $/gallon, and $/kWh are we talking?

Ionity - 0,70EUR/kWh

Enel X - Charging points in Italy: 0,69€/kWh for AC charging points, 0,89€/kWh for DC charging points up to 150 kW and 0,99€/kWh for DC charging points over 150 kW (HPC)

• Charging points outside Italy: 0,70€/kWh for AC charging points, 0,95€/kWh for DC charging points up to 150kW and 0,99€/kWh for DC charging points above 150kW

Those are just two charging network known for high power chargers on European highways, which I can get top out of my head.

Oh... That is indeed very high. I thought I had it bad in California with 43 cents/kWh...
