This is a very interesting thread ... though I know that the future is electric it would really bother me I need to plan out my trip around getting my car charged. Also the idea of having to wait around for 30 minutes in the middle of a road trip would get me crazy, heck I don't even like stopping for the bathroom but we have no choice.

I was reading that the Porsche Mission E will have 20 minute quick charging allowing 250 miles of driving but still that is a lot longer than the 5 minutes it takes to get gas.

Plus the whole charging at home thing requires the car to be garaged ... I just realized what does JST do being he doesn't have a garage

Per the actual article on the Porsche:

The 800-volt chargers could recharge a Mission E to 80 percent capacity — or about 250 miles worth of driving range — in less than 20 minutes
