My biggest EV doubt is that everyone living in a condo/apartment doesn’t have the option to install charging ports in their own parking space, so plug-in EVs are a terrible option ATM. I’ll get on board when I see the change happen but knowing landlords I’m doubtful.
Where I live, this is changing already. I suspect it comes down to your lawmakers and how you vote more than landlords. Landlords will never do something unless it makes them easy money. Though, ev chargers can be profitable, so maybe they are just dumb.
A big part of why the tesla plug was chosen as the north american standard plug is the lack of infrastructure upgrades needed. Apparently it uses exactly 1 phase of a commercial electric line so it needs far less infrastructure to add charging if there is commercial electric already. For example they’d be able to install just an outlet on every streetlight.

Not to mention the infrastructure upgrades it would take to mass-install enough plugs in every condo
