Putting DC charging in an EV is like putting a turbo in a gas car. You can do it, but it'll be expensive and complicated, and you probably don't need it.
Well that’s not really how it works. Even with 22 kW AC (what is rare in Europe) Tesla model Y needs 4 hours to charge from empty to road ready. And it is show stopper, because any petrol car needs 5 minutes to go another 300-600 miles. With DC charger I can have a normal break of 40 minutes and have enough charge for another 300 miles. DC charging is the topic to ease range anxiety and make EVs viable replacement for petrol cars. Without gooood DC charging capability the electric cars are suitable as city cars at best.
Edit: model Y does not support 22 kW AC charging. Only 11 kW AC. And it still takes whole day to fully charge.
The point is that maybe most(some?) people don't need DC charging at all. I've owned our VW e-Up for 3 years now, drive it literally every day, and I never needed to fast charge it because I've not once taken it on a trip longer than its battery range. I just never had a need. In fact I'm just charging it from a normal domestic socket at a meagre 2kW once a week and that's absolutely enough. Obviously it won't work for everyone, but I bet it would work for a whole range of people - some of my friends have definitely never driven more than 100 miles in a day in their cars and they lug around 50 litres of petrol in their tanks "just in case".
I don't know many cities which would challenge a 400km EV range, actually with that range I'm already across the border in any direction I'd drive. But okay I'm one of the dozen or so people who don't live in the US.
