I think that really depends where you are. If you're in the US, sure. The US is far behind on infrastructure. If you're in Europe, it's much more viable. They have a lot more infrastructure (including much better public transportation) and EVs are actually viable as a replacement.

It's fine for 90% of what people do with cars in the US. People in the US seem to like roadtrips a lot more than Europeans, though, and that's where infrastructure needs to improve.

Right. You can easily take a long roadtrip in an EV in Europe. Not so much in the US. At least not yet.
