It has taken Tesla 8.5 years to get where they are now. That is when the first supercharger went live
Maybe it is unrealistic to think VW or EA is going to get there in 1 year.
I've owned my Model S since late 2013 and the charging experience has been nearly flawless from the get go. Tesla's early problem wasn't with the functional part of getting your car charged, it was simply just building more chargers. It has always been show up, plug it in, get energy. No apps or phone calls to make sure the energy is comped. It has just worked.
EA has the opposite problem. They have done an amazing job of getting chargers up and running in a very short amount of time, even better than Tesla in terms of nationwide coverage. It's the experience when you actually are there that sucks, which Tesla nailed on day 1.
