Driving an EV long distances (road trips) is definitely not as convenient as a gas vehicle but not too bad with Tesla and the Superchargers. It's the average daily commute and driving that 99% of us do 95% of the time where the Tesla shines. Plug it in each night like your iPhone. Full "tank" costs $8 or so for 300+ miles of range and every day you have a full tank. No more stopping at smelly gas stations and watching the pump churn through dollars on the display while (in my area anyways) freezing outside.
Totally different ownership experience. No oil changes or regular maintenance other than windshield washer fluid. Brakes last for ever with regen braking.
Oh, and it's the quickest 4-door sedan on the planet. Smooth, powerful acceleration with no gear changes and monster torque.
Sounds pretty innovative to me...
