Would still be a little difficult for people living in apartments. I always think about this when it comes to EVs, and owning "dumb" cars and maintaining them yourself, which I would like to do. My apartment complex has 3 or 4 EV chargers, which are assigned. So you would have to rent the apartment that comes with the EV spot, which I'm sure makes the rent go up by far more than it's worth. And no way is there room to work on your own car within the assigned spaces. No guest parking either. I guess it's just more stuff to add to the "cycle of poverty" list
