    Buying an EV is one thing, being able to drive it beyond city limits another...

    I think that qualifies as "recharging."

    Yeah, sorry, I guess I was trying to say that a 10 or 20 kW charger (depending on how long you stay and how much charge you would need) might be preferable to having an extra ICE for that reason.

    EDIT: BTW, When driving in remote areas I do think a lot about range, and where to find gas stations, with an ICE, as I don't like topping off all the time.
