I mean, the problem with charging isn't really the charge times right now. It's the fact that every non-Tesla charger is a piece of shit... and the fact that you need an account on every single different charging company, and some app on your phone that won't work properly.

> every non-Tesla charger is a piece of shit

That's fixed easily - just get a Tesla Supercharger subscription, most should be open to other EVs.

Yes, that costs money (i think around 10€/month here) but you're saving after the first full charge compared to others (Ionity for example) - and that's 'round here in .de, not exactly the country with the lowest charging costs... (ftr, i think the current low-end on Superchargers here in .de either with a Tesla or a subscription is around 0.41€/kWh whereas with aforementioned Ionity charges at least 0,64€/kWh when roaming).
