On the flip-side I don't have a gas station in my garage or my work's parking garage, but either can be trivially outfitted with a 220v plug. Ideally, one's recharge strategy shouldn't be like filling up a gas car. You should be plugging your car in for overnight charging and only using these types of stations in a pinch. With gas cars, I have to use these stations. They're literally my only choice. I couldn't build a gas station in my garage even with vasts amount of money due to regulatory, safety, and environmental concerns.

Its also more reasonable to tap into overnight power as to not stress the daytime powergrid.

>gas contains about 33kWh of energy per gallon

ICE are about 20-30% efficient. So 70% of that 33kwh is lost to heat and other inefficiences. Electric cars are about 70-80% efficient, so you actually need only 1/3rd the energy capacity in this kind of calculation to match ICE/gas.
