Re: How long do you have to wait for an EV to charge?

It depends on the EV, but they can charge in a few minutes. FOr instance a Tesla can add 100 miles in 7 minutes. Generally most EV owners won't be sat at a public charger station as they charge at home but after 5 hours of driving then you might want to stop for some food for half an hour anyway?

However it depends on the car, as I said, look for quick charging and a reasonable size battery with hoe charging and refueling will be easier than using fuel station over the course of a year.
