The 1.5 hrs spent recharging is the step too far for me. That's only Tesla that offer the quick charging as the "normal" charge points are much lower amperage and therefore much slower. If the charging issue was overcome by something as quick as filling with fuel it would be a no brainer for most but still difficult for someone towing. As you say, tedious even with fuel at 125 miles a time. I get about 300 miles towing at about 60mph so having to stop more often would be irritating but add to that a 1.5 hr wait per refill and it becomes intolerable. Shame as the characteristics of the electric motor suits towing from a torque perspective but just not from a recharge point of view.
