I think this is one of those situations that driving an EV is more expensive than gas. I mean, think about it. Driving gas, you could do the trip in one go. I’ve done Phoenix, AZ to San Jose in a day in my PHEV, and we even started later in the day and got home past midnight. If I was in an EV, we would have probably stayed at a hotel somewhere and no matter how cheap electricity is compared to fuel, all of that goes away with a hotel stay.
