I want and EV but I don't have a charger and I cant have a charger since I live in an apartment.


If you park in the street, and there are public chargers in a 1-km radius around your apartment, you can probably make it by "topping-up" every two or three days on a public charger.

Unless you spend upwards of 40% of your battery daily, you'll be good.

If you own a parking spot in your apartment complex, and depending on your jurisdiction, you can install your own charger.


You can even charge once a week or even less, depends on the usage.

You also don't have a gas station inside your apartment. Depending on which car you get, you could go charge it to charging station. I'm not saying this is instant process.


That's a poor excuse today. I'm not trying to be pushy but have you dismissed the LFP battery EVs? Those you charge fully once every other week, just like your average ICE vehicle. The time spent recharging can be spent grocery shopping or something else productive.
