Not everyone would be OK using a regular power outlet for charging, sometimes not being able to drive back home before the battery dies  |
Yes, charging at home on a Level 2 charger - just like I charge my current Bolt EV. Public DC Chargers are only for longer trips - the vast majority of EV charging happens at home. If you can't charge at home there is no reason I can see to own an EV.
I just paid to use a public DC charger today for the first time in more than a year when my wife and I were out at the Oregon Coast. It was $0.49 per kWh so plugged in for 15 minutes, added the 50 miles of range I needed and then headed home to charge overnight at $0.08 per kWh.
