Has any company actually tried? I don't feel like other car companies, as demonstrated by their public activities, aren't acting like DC Fast charging is critical to the success of their company.
Tesla behaves as though the success of their company is based on being able to use their cars for 100% of the things people use cars for. If there's some potential excuse (Hey I might need to drive to Newark at a moment's notice when my car's nearly empty; I can do that with my fiesta but I can't with some EV) tesla seems to work to overcome that issue. At this point, if you own a tesla (in north america), you can likely drive between any two cities with 50k or more people and always have a supercharger in between. You can drive from Edmonton to Prince Albert with 2 superchargers in between. [edited from 3 to 2; the 3rd is in Saskatoon which isn't really in between]
> Nobody has been able to compete with Tesla with >99% uptime.
How would you know? You're quoting a figure straight from Tesla's marketing and you're not comparing it to other charging networks using the same methodology or the same definition of "uptime".
Tesla's IR claims are broadly consistent with general sentiment. If you have something substantive to share I'm genuinely interested. But just throwing "how do you know" around as a substitute for an actual argument is just sad and tired.
Back your claim. Apply the same methodology and metric to all the charging providers in the world, because remember your claim is that "nobody has been able to compete with Tesla with >99% uptime".
You set the benchmark so prove it. And if you can't do that then admit you don't know what you're talking about.
