Great if you need navigation to get where you're going, but otherwise, I'm not so sure. This sounds like too much setup hassle when I just want to go somewhere I already know well. I also don't take well to stuff like "the driver would be required to enter their destination," especially when the car is probably sending that info to some big computer somewhere via cellular data. Have to get it calculated fast, you know! And of course they have to save it, for "quality control." Sorry, none of their business. I don't use voice recognition on my mobile phone for the same reason. I think the best answer is the most obvious one: Keep working to improve range, and add more public charging points, so "range anxiety" ceases to be a major concern for most drivers.
