120v charging would take forever. You would not get a full charge charging it over night. If you live in an apartment even that might not be possible if you don't have an outlet in or near your carport and the landlord would have to be cool with it or you might have to pay for it somehow. Just not workable for most apartment dwellers. If you can find a parking spot at work that you can charge at it may not be free and there are a limited number of spaces and more people with EVs that want to charge every day. Going to a fast charger hopefully there's no one there as you'd have to wait a couple hours if there is a line.

Seems not worth the investment as EVs aren't cheap you might be better off with a plug in hybrid. Some people want the prestige of driving an EV even if it doesn't make any sense.
