Exactly.

Having only a 100 mile range is plenty for your daily driving, but if you can't charge at home, it becomes very disruptive.

Short range EVs typically only support J-1772 which only charges at up to 19.2 kW, and many cars only even support 11.5 kW. You'll be charging for at least an hour.

At least with a 300 mile range, most people could get away with charging for just 20 minutes/week.
