I'm probably over remembering, but even 5 km/hour would do for a lot of commutes if you could slow charge at home and work, just at home would go a long way to push needing to go to a charging station.

I'm totally in favour of higher amp circuits being available, just thinking that there's not as big of a barrier as some people suggest there is.

I looked it up once and the average Canadian/USA commute (at least in non winter weather) can be done on a 120v 5-15 outlet.

Harsher winters would probably need the 5-20 outlets (or indoor parking) to maintain that level though.

Edit: and ya having charging at work would make the winters better as it adds an extra 8 hours of charging you'd lose otherwise.
