Yes, that’s true.
Actually it’s entirely feasible to make long journeys in EVs if you plan your charging stops at places where you need to stop for a wee and a coffee or some lunch. That’s how I did my trip to the Lake District, which was about 250 miles and we completed it in 5 hours with two stops. (One stop was just for a wee. Charging wasn’t necessary.)
When we got to Windermere we parked at the local supermarket and charged to 100% while we had dinner.
I know there are people in the US who absolutely can’t live without making a non-stop 500 mile trip every day, but they really are the outliers of the outliers. We don’t need to organise the whole planet’s transport system around the 0.01% of travellers.
