I'm sure charging stations exist, but I've only ever seen one with my own eyes once (Brazil, major city)

Meanwhile in Europe I take off for road trips with my EV that has very mid range, fully trusting there's gonna be a station when I need one, at first I used to plan the trips around charges but quickly figured out it's not necessary. If you have a newer model with big range then it's really a total non-issue. Sucks to hear Brazil isn't there yet but I'm sure the infrastructure will catch up soon.

Drove home today from the countryside in Finland. A station every 30km at least.

Gas costs ~2€/litre.
