I would counter your charging anecdote almost entirely with my anecdote. I have never had to worry about arriving at a destination without enough to make it to another supercharger, that worked great in 2022 when I got my model 3 and works great today. I have never had so much as a single issue with a supercharger not working or being out of service and not saying it on the car screen. I don't have any rebuttals for your other points: winter range stinks, and tires wear faster than gas equivalents. EVs really need a battery innovation to add another 100 estimated miles to really push them into the mainstream imo. If we can get to the 450ish range that would help a lot.
The range thing is weird, because it’s simultaneously too little for your use case, and too much for mine. What I want is a shorter-range (like 200 km/125 miles would be perfect, it gives enough buffer by being about double the max range I’d ever need in practice) that saves on upfront cost and weight by having a smaller battery that can be my household’s secondary city car. But as-is, there’s no EV that’s cheap enough to justify buying as a cheap, low-range city car.
So instead of my household having one EV and one gas car, we’ve got two gas cars.
I dunno, like it might be the best option if I was set on an EV, but it feels like it has a bigger battery than necessary rather than just having a smaller battery, including a heat pump on the base trim, and not air-cooling the battery. (And chademo is pretty unappealing, and lack of AWD is a downer.)
All-in-all, it feels like a lot of compromises compared to our current second car. (A 2019 Impreza hatch.)
