However, there are a fair number of day and weekend destinations around the Bay Area that would only require 1 QC, or 1 QC each way with/without L2 at destination to get to, thus making it possible to use a BEV for a much greater fraction of people's miles. Until affordable BEV range increases they will continue to use an ICE/HEV/PHEV for the long distance trips.
I agree that QC would open up
many new destinations with a single charge, and those trips will account for most usage. I'd be willing to wait and pay for 2 QC's, or maybe 3. Some would accept more than that.
Apart from trips, for daily driving QC will be the safety net. Right now I sometimes charge to 100% when I'll probably need less than 80% -
just in case. And I'll sometimes top off at public L2 -
just in case. But if QC were available in case of need, then I wouldn't need to charge more nor top off.
