Namely, EVs are designed to sit parked (and therefore charge over long periods), rather than drive, for the great majority of their time, which makes them less suited for high utilisation. The available charging infrastructure, moreover, was not originally designed for shared use. Given their long charging times, their locations outside of city centres, inside garages and lacking access or amenities, it is clear that EV charging infrastructure was designed for customers and commuters rather than for shared use purposes.
