That's when I use my ICE vehicle, or rent one for the longer journeys. but 99% of all my driving is in city and I charge at home - so it's really a non-issue.

Hmm, my thinking was that journeys that use the full range of the electric vehicle are the exception though.

So in your example, it makes sense to have a ICE vehicle as you require the range. Most of us though don't need that range. Most of us are unlikely to regularly be driving over 200 miles for a commute, and therefore EVs make sense for all of these people.

For your scenario, if you are motivated enough to do this, it might even work out cheaper to buy an EV, and rent an ICE car for your longer trip. But fair enough that this would be much less convenient.

One source for my thinking: https://www.statista.com/chart/24684/average-duration-of-a-one-way-commute/

I mean, there's not a lot of people travelling 800km round trip regularly, majority of people probably travel less than 40km per day, with quite large percent of the commute time spend on idle either in traffic light or traffic jam. That's petrol wasted not travelling. I'm generally mocking those who think their exception is the rule.
