Superchargers take 10 times as long as filling with petrol so there will need to be 10 times as many charging points as petrol pumps. That means 10 times as many service stations as there are now.

But there's a problem with that.

When petrol stations are flat out and full of cars, they have the fuel on site. Electric superchargers don't. They hope to have supplies available at the time.

If the electric supplies are photovoltaic and there's 100% cloud cover, there won't be much charging going on.

Hopefully that's not too short for you.
