    The problem is apartments without garages or without parking lots. See San Francisco, New York, etc.

      My understanding is that most people like that in those cities don’t have cars because mass transit there is actually quite good, and keeping a car is excessively expensive for something they’ll rarely need

      As electric car ownership increases, apartments will be incentivized to install ways to charge them. Just like electric cars it’ll start with high end apartments and trickle down. This may also incentivize apartment owners to install solar on their buildings to charge battery banks to save money on electricity.
