If high draw charging becomes taxed or somehow billed more than slower rates of electricity usage, I'd just slow the rate of charge to whatever is necessary to avoid the extra bill. Only on very rare occasions would I need an EV to be charged at the max rate.
... I considered a new EV purchase since my company helps pay for a vehicle, and business miles are reimbursed at the federal rate. The only thing preventing me was lack of adequate charging infrastructure and the time spent charging. Since I get paid to travel, it isn't ethical to get paid to wait to charge, plus sometimes I need to get to a customer site as soon as possible.
In 2 years when my company car has to be turned in, I'll look at an EV as a business car again.
