I don't think the 15 to 30 minutes for a fast charge will put people off either. There are routinely 30 to 40 minute lineups at our local costco gas pump. Dozens of vehicles just idling away. They don't seem to mind sitting in the fumes for half an hour. They would probably be okay with a 20 minute DC fast charge or TESLA supercharge.
30-40 minute wait to fill up with gas? If you are willing to put up with that, then you have a very different mindset than I do. If I have to wait on more than one other car I'll drive to the next station.
I don't do Costco or any other of those discount stations, since there are none within 2 hours of where I live. I mostly buy my gas at the Farmer's Co-Op Elevator here in town. I usually get mid grade for about the same as others pay for regular, and I rarely have to wait at all.
I hear ya. I can't imagine waiting that long either but I see it all the time at our local costco. Go figure. Kinda why I like the EV, fills up while I sleep.
