But it also made me realize how hard it is for many people to own an electric car. I have my own garage under my house. I charge my car in there. A large portion of car owners in my city, San Francisco, have no private parking space. How does charging work for them? They need to go to a public recharge station. And wait to charge. Having an electric car is an incredible time tax on people who do not have their own parking spot with access to electricity. I had not fully appreciated how this will slow down adoption of electric cars until I owned one myself and could reflect on my own level of privilege in this regard.
