I think this could be a good business move for the convenience stores as we are typically there longer than a gas fill up so may be more tempted to go in. I also don't care much about more fast chargers in a city I need them off the highway for long distance trips. I do see Uber/Lyft people hit DCFCs in town though and I would assume apartment dwellers do too.
I concur, 50 kW in urban areas is probably fine in most places, but a 7/11 (or whatever) along a highway or interstates really should be 100+ kW.
EA has 150 and 300 but they just are not enough.
Interesting that juts a few years back when i first got my Leaf I was excited with the mere possibility of 50 kW chargers in my area, but the tech on the EVS has advanced so quickly, that just isn't good enough a few years later.
