"ガソリン車の利便性に匹敵する必要があります"
— Elon Musk
Simplified Meaning:
To make electric cars popular, they need to be as easy to use as gasoline cars. People like gasoline cars because they can quickly refuel them at many stations, and they can drive long distances without much planning. For electric cars to compete, they need to have enough charging stations and not take too long to charge. Think about how people choose a smartphone. If a new model has a fantastic camera but a weak battery that needs constant charging, people might stick with their old phone. In the same way, if using an electric car is inconvenient, people will stick with gasoline cars. So for electric cars to catch on, they need to be just as simple and reliable for everyday use.
