''Great video and reflects exactly what I've found.
I've had EVs since 2015, currently using an eNiro with the lease ending in November, I'll be replacing it with a 3 litre BMW diesel. Public rapid charging availability is now worse than it was when 8 years ago.
In September we did a trip from Devon to the Lake district, over 6 days we did 1077 miles. Where we were stating had a public charger so I could charge over night. On the way to the Lakes I spent 30 minutes on the phone to Gridserve at Gloucester services trying to get a charger to start but had to give up. Then the next 2 were busy, we finally charged on the 4th service station. 10 minutes in to charging, after I just sat down to eat my (very late) lunch the car tells me charging stopped, someone had pressed the stop button on the charger so I had to go out and start it again.
On the way home it was a similar story, no chargers available on 3 attempts, got to Exeter really needing a charge and there were 2 cars already waiting, we had to wait around 45 minutes for a charger and in the mean time, 4 more cars got behind me in the queue.
The cost of charging over the week was GBP149.52. In a BMW 330d it would have cost GBP124.59 in diesel and would have saved 4 or 5 hours of my time and a lot of stress''.
