"This allows American drivers to reach 30% further on an average EV road trip compared to other countries."
But still have to find a compatible charger and sit around for up to an hour at the end of that 309 mile journey.
It's not about range, it's about access and convenience.
We need more chargers and faster charge times, not bigger batteries.

(Well, all three at the same time would be better yet, of course, but higher capacity batteries tend to require more rare materials whioch has ecological and sustainability issues...)
