DC charging is fine for the occasional road trip, but I would absolutely hate it if that were my everyday charging solution.

Home charging is fantastic, but without it, I'd find an EV impractical for day to day. With it, it's hands down better than dealing with a gas car.

Shopping centres and work parking charges tend to be slow chargers

Which at my work, is fine. 3 hours of work charging gets me about 60 miles of range replenished. I am at work that long so it's fine.

For 99.9% of my trips to a shopping center, it wouldn't be worth the trouble to plug in.
