Most people don’t, but some do. I did for a while, when I was working as a construction manager and then again as a generator technician. It’s a big country, with all kinds of people. I think you’d be surprised how many people frequently need to drive ling distances in a hurry.
Sure, but first you have to make an EV that 90% of people can afford. And make enough of them for 90% of the market to buy. And maybe do something about interest rates while we’re at it. Also, I could use a back rub. And world peace, maybe.
I’m sure there are people, but I think you’d be surprised how few there are. The vast majority of people make long trips very infrequently - to the point that most could hire a car or find some other means for those situations.
It’s not a big deal if you’re only driving a few hours. Longer trips, especially business trips, yes that’s a big deal.

Best I can do is a 12-year financing plan at 18% interest and oh, you’re fired.

I get more than the stated range in the summer and less in the winter.
