I'd presume that a cab would be fully charged before starting work and if they do less than 100 miles in a shift it wouldn't need charging again. Once the range of EVs hits the 200 mile+ mark then it's no longer an issue.

This presumes the cab is'nt out 24 hours a day, has a spare 8 hours downtime to charge and the owner/driver can charge it at home before work. No-ones going to sit on a rank for several hours charging, but they may do a quick 10-20 minutes topup if it's quiet.

The newer cars coming on stream will do about 200 miles on a charge, so with these new super chargers that will do 80% in a max of 20 minutes I'm not sure there will be an issue.

One of those charges should cost between £3 and £5.
