Canada

Yeah, I am 100% with you on the need for investment in infrastructure. The reason Norway is so successful is because they both set hard deadlines on the sale of gasoline and diesel powered vehicles and simultaneously heavily invested in infrastructure and incentives to remove older vehicles from the road.

That said, having owned multiple BEV vehicles (in what's arguably the middle of nowhere, BC) the issues with cold and lack of charging infrastructure are largely overestimated by the buying public. To the point of feeling like an excuse rather than an actual reason. People that actually try to live with a BEV for their daily transportation will find that, by and large, charging at home and driving to where you need to be and back is perfectly doable and will cover 99% of your yearly transportation needs. Even in temperatures down to -35, your EV is going to function just fine, and your range will get you where you need to be and back.

So, unless you are going on a 300km+ trip every day (which the vast majority of Canadians don't do on a daily basis, statistically speaking) you'll very likely be fine with a BEV. And, just in case you are wondering, if you do need to drive those 300km+ trips often within BC you will find a charger within 300km of the previous one, pretty much regardless of where you are (see: https://pluginbc.ca/charging/finding-stations/).

I honestly feel that too many people repeat the above factors (which are real and should be addressed by both the government and car manufacturers respectively) without having actually tried to live with a BEV.
