How about talking to the landlords who refuse to install EV chargers? Or maybe talk to manufacturers who won't sell a basic EV that isn't overpriced?
This is just "Am I out of touch? No, it's the children who are wrong!" again.
What do landlords have to do with it? Can you not power the charger off 110V or 220V? Do you need a higher amp circuit cut in, larger than 30A? (American question obviously.)
Some apartment buildings are nowhere near where tenets park vehicles. Running extention cables would be a mess and dangerous
Ah! When I think "landlord", I'm thinking of a single family home. That's generally the context in America.
It depends. More rural areas are single family/duplex set ups. If you are more urban you'll find complexes or even skyscrapers in large metro areas :)
