- have a charger in garage
- commute to work
Many people are missing by the term "fast charging". There's isn't such thing. There's is slow charging and VERY slow charging. As such, if you can't charge overnight in your own garage, it's not gonna be fun. If you wanna charge it on long trips, it will not be fun. Use it for daily commute, and that's it
Charging usually doesn't add any time to our trips, because it takes less than 30 minutes for a full charge, and we align this to meal stops.
Add in the fact that it does all the driving by itself so we can relax, it's definitely net positive.
Now if you don't have a Tesla, I wholly agree.
We are currently seeing the tip of the iceberg on upcoming massive price drops across the board, both for EVs and internal combustion cars and trucks. Demand for all has dropped to historic lows because of greedy pricing by manufacturers/dealers combined with high interest rates, tightened lending standards, and upside down trade-ins. Lots are overflowing nationwide, with even some new 2022 models still unsold. When the tipping point is reached in the next 6 months or so, 5 figure discounts off sticker will become the norm as dealers scramble to offload inventory in a buyer's market. Many dealers are facing bankruptcy as we speak unless drastic measures are taken to move cars that are costing them huge amounts in floorplan interest costs. It's time for them to pay the piper for the easy money they made during the pandemic.
Oh and I forgot to mention the underhanded, dishonest tactics and ridiculous add-ons from dealers. All of this combined has made the average car buyer detest the current "dealership experience". I'd love to go buy a new truck, but currently there is no way I'd set foot on a dealership lot with all of the above in mind. They can keep their $80,000 trucks; I'm not interested.

That said, without Tesla superchargers, public charging is kinda bad. Chargepoint and others get about 10% an hour. Also the range on this Subaru is low, and it'll be even lower while running AC or if the temps get sub-freezing. Even I wouldn't consider this unless you have home charging.
Edit: Forgot to mention SR is the slowest charing model. LR and performance models charge at 250 vs 170.
