The future of cross-country road trips in South Africa faces a significant challenge with electric vehicles (EVs). The “missing middle” issue, critical in various contexts like sandwich-making or economic research, profoundly impacts EV road trips. In urban South Africa, owning an EV necessitates reliable home or office charging options and access to public DC chargers at places like malls. Without this infrastructure, the EV experience can be severely limited, complicating long-distance travel.
South Africans need to stay informed and proactive to foster a successful future.
