While it will be great to have EV batteries that fully recharge in minutes, in many ways it's a misunderstanding. As Finn says even current batteries will add nearly 300 km of range in 15 minutes. Having to stop for 15 minutes to 'fuel' every 2.5-3 hours is what we're supposed to be doing anyway, for safety, on long trips. And as always nearly all EV journeys won't need servos, people will charge at home. Whereas petrol and diesel vehicles need to go to the servo every time they need to refuel.
