If you don't need 'evidence', there is no way to have a logical discussion with you, is there?
The 'actual experience' you prefer is something subjective to you, asserting that you are the sole expert on truth.

The answer is fast-charge batteries (10 minutes to a 90% charge), which have already been developed and demonstrated, and are already on the market to a limited extent - the world record EV speed was recently set using fast-charge Altairnano batteries, for instance.
The high-powered chargers required won't be for home use (at home, you would still charge overnight), but would be very handy at service stations for long trips."
