We took my wife's Q5 down to LA, mainly because my 91 year old mother-in-law doesn't like getting in & out of the Taycan. Didn't need fuel for the car en route, but both ways we stopped twice for 30+ minutes each time anyway (for restrooms, lunch and just to stretch our legs). And in all the places we stopped (4 different ones in total), there were chargers (Electrify Americ, Tesla and sometimes ChargePoint too). No real time difference to take an EV vs ICE any longer.
@pixel@breakfastgolem Can’t speak to the whole country, but we’ve done a lot of long trips in the Taycan, and not had problems charging at EA sites. Recently, they’ve been busier, but I’ve only had to wait once in three years, and that was only for ~10 minutes.
I have heard that outside of California / west coast things might not be as good, but also note that the EV cannonball time was held by a Taycan using EA for a while (before s Tesla reclaimed it), so can’t be that bad.
