There's only one realistic solution to that presently: battery-swapping.
I guess if you could build enough drive-through service stations that offer quick battery-swapping, Tesla-style, it's doable.
It would also be necessary to develop some means of preventing vehicles from becoming stranded, such as those parked for long periods away from a charging point. Perhaps a smaller 'reserve' battery that can easily be swapped by the owner. Something small enough to carry indoors to charge that will provide enough power to get to a battery-swap station.
