Most people don't drive 500 miles regularly. Most people can wait 15 minutes to charge and then go on their way. Most existing chargers are good enough and won't be upgraded any time soon.
That is true, but at least for now, there are many people who would wish for 5 minute charging. I guess people here love to lecture that you don't need it, while the Chinese like byd and catl just build what the people want.
