To recharge the vehicle’s battery, you will need to plug it into an electrical receptacle. You will need to pay for the electricity used to charge the battery. This is less expensive than refueling an ICE vehicle.
I sure hope every home is built with a garage, and/or has actual infrastructure built out for that to be viable… oh right, it’s not like that (I live in this little thing that everyone loves to conveniently fucking forget about, rural america), and I certainly don’t have any faith that it would even come anywhere close to that in within the next several decades.
Rural America is going to have no trouble finding space to put 240v chargers, rural America has more space than it knows what to do with. For most of the people I know living in rural America adding something to their breaker box is childsplay
I don’t have a carport or garage, I literally have a cord that comes off the side of my house and I park right there and get charged, wake up to a full battery every day.
It costs less the $1,000 to add charging infrastructure to a house. If you can park in the dirt next to the house you can charge, even better if you have a driveway or gravel.
