We're literally already past that point.

LOL, No, you're not doing your research. You do realize that one of the biggest EV markets in the world is Norway, right? Think it might be cold there?

Tell me you haven't driven a performance EV without telling me you haven't driven a performance EV. Friend of mine regularly embarasses many ICE cars at Buttonwillow and Laguna in his Taycan Turbo. The reaction of drivers after they get passed by him is "wow, I didn't know EV's could drive like that".

Anything less than 8 hours and the two charging stops you'd have to do, if combined with eating breaks, would add negligible time to your trip. I road trip, have done longer trips in EV, and done the math. After 8 hours you start to extend your day and it gets to be cumbersome.
