Most electric cars are charged overnight at home


That's because most are only town runabouts.


as many houses in towns don’t have off road parking ie driveway or
garage how would they charge them?


You could have charging sockets wherever the car is parked up overnight.
Posts at the edge of the pavement. Exactly as are springing up round here.
Although at the moment they seem to be restricted to the very few
stretches of pavement in residential areas that aren't actually in front
of a house. Like say on the end of a street where there is a longish
garden wall from the house on the corner.
