Charging has long been the Achilles’ heel of electric vehicles. One startup thinks it has a better way for apartment dwelling EV drivers to charge overnight.
Also, many, many, many apartments buildings aren’t built to handle such electrical loads (I’d bet loads of money most aren’t capable - why would you engineer a building for more than it’s projected to need? That just costs more).
In every apartment and rental house I’ve been in, you’d have to install a new service to be able to charge anything, because they’re already running close to max current capacity.
What’s that charger going to pull, in amps, for how long? It’ll need to be 220v, at least, and those are dedicated runs (think electric dryer or electric stove).

I have no idea why you are being downvoted, you’re just stating facts
