why? you literally say 37 miles, that means it's already good enough for the majority.
Because we're talking averages. People don't buy a car to go an average number of miles. People buy a car to cover the maximum number of miles that they would go.
Maybe I average 37 miles a day. But four of those trips are 8-hour drives to see my in-laws. I'm not doing that in my Nissan leaf.
I'm lucky enough to have two cars. My Nissan leaf which I use for everyday driving, and an ICE for the in-law trips and my spouse's driving. If there were a vehicle with extended range, like 300 mi, and a very quick charge, I would get rid of the ICE. Until then, 50% of my cars are not EV.
people go cars to go places 90%+ of those trips is below 200km
300mi with a quick charge? isn't Hyundai Ioniq right there?
