No revolution is coming. Deal with it. But it's also okay to have up to hour charges. Take a break, get some coffee and everything is fine. If you can sit 3h in traffic to work every day or sleep in front of the store on black friday so you can get 20% off on things you don't need, you can sit every once in a while on long journeys. You need a break from driving anyway.
The other thing people forget is that consumption is kind of linear. If you’re inching along in traffic, you’re not consuming at the rate of a car traveling @ 120kph, so if most of your drive is under city stop and start, your expected range could be considerably extended. There was a study of Parisian traffic a few years back (still looking for it) and something akin to a 320km range Zoe hatchback would average 400-500km+ range in city driving, depending on driving style and location.
