In the USA, the upcoming Thanksgiving weekend will see a post-covid new surge of long distance travel on Wednesday and Sunday afternoons. EVs had some hiccups in 2019, so what might happen in 2022?
Softening a peak
This is one thing gasoline does better. The speed of filling a gas tank means that it’s easy to handle a surge in demand. Lines at gas stations do happen — sometimes horrible ones when there is a shortage — and they happen at Costco all the time due to low prices. But it’s harder for EVs to get through it.
The useful result is that because Thanksgiving travel is almost entirely planned well in advance, while day to day travel is more random. Just as all air travelers and the airlines know the rush is coming, so do drivers.
