Even here in little old England my commute to the office and back is 150 miles. These "300 mile range" EVs rarely actually do 300 miles so I'd need to charge my car up at home every day. If I forget then I'm stuck trying to find a supercharger in rush hour, which sounds like a recipe for disaster.
I have a neighbor that commute 300+ km round trip every day no problem for years. Driving from home fully charged he can get to Copenhagen and back on the same charge at 130 km/h almost all the way on "Motorway".
Even with the extra distance you require, it should be easily possible if your place of work has a charger reserved for you.
Even a normal 11 kWh home charger is more than enough to get you going home fully charged in an 8 hour workday of charging.
