Most people freak out about range, want cars with same range as ICE, but actually only do 15 miles to go to work... And 10 more miles for groceries...
Then once every 3 years, they do a longer trip with the kids and at that point they really need the range.
I would argue that in that scenario you can plan your trip to include the charging stops, meaning: 1 during every meal, 1 for restroom stop, 1 for coffee in the morning, etc...
When you drive more than 5 hours, you should not be worrying about 1 to 2 hours lost :( That also means that the charging infrastructure must be good and cars must have modern high speed charging. That is only my opinion.
So in that department, Tesla is a clear winner for now. I've seen horrific videos from the canadians at "TheStraightPipes" about Canada/USA "regular" charging points :(
