Stopping to charge an electric car used to mean a bit of a lifestyle adjustment. You would pull into an empty service station, fight with a cable thick as an anaconda, pray the card reader works, and then pace around for forty-five minutes with the battery slowly seeping in electrons. If you enjoy the open road, the romance of a crisp morning sprint used to come with an asterisk: the fun-busting midway compulsory stop. But if you look at the slugfest happening in the East, that entire paradigm is being pushed into the history books.
