For trips exceeding 300 miles that cross regions of the South, West and Midwest, there are often no fast chargers located near interstates. The travel model using internal combustion engine vehicles - allowing drivers to travel freely and refuel in approximately ten minutes - is not matched by electric vehicles in the US. Charging delays of more than one hour, occurring at least twice daily, can extend the duration of an 8-9 hour drive significantly. PHEVs are the practical interim solution for the US.
