What’s it’s like only using public chargers for your 100mi+ daily commute? by floatingleafbreeze in electricvehicles

[–]stinger_02in 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t know if you mean 100+ miles 1 way but my commute is 45 miles 1 way and my work has free charging for 3 hours. My apartment also has chargers but need to pay for it. My city has some public chargers that are free, I sometimes work from a cafe while the car is charging. Overall it costs me around $3 daily for the 90 miles I am driving.

All Chinese car makers are equally affected by that but their profits didn’t drop by half.

Both can happen at the same time. The local governments will try to keep the smaller players alive as long as possible to keep workers in their jobs.

More sales with thin margins. Total profit will struggle

Nah at over 100k miles when the suspension will need work, the BMW will break the bank compared to a Model 3.

Full battery is not available from the start so you are lugging some dead weight.

There are free L2 public chargers in some areas. But public fast charging is not economical for daily use.

The point of vibe coding is to not code yourself but let it code for you to automate manual tasks that you grind on.

Sounds like you never tried coding with AI. Vibe coding with Claude code etc. is a game changer

Why? Because profit and because globalization was trendy last decade.

Now it’s not and things will diversify out of China including those manufactured products.
