Problem is, given a typical electric car like the , it can take 15 hours to charge the battery from empty to its EPA-rated 75-mile range from that standard household source. Most plug-in cars have a J1772 port, letting them plug into public charging stations.
How long did it take to recharge? About an hour. Thanks to Tesla's Superchargers, that's a lot less time than an electric car ordinarily takes to charge, especially one that can go 270 miles. On the other hand, it's much longer than it takes to fill up a gas tank. So, again, driving an electric car on an interstate run requires a bit more planning.
