Gas is energy dense. Before those gas stations got built up you could take a few cans of fuel home with you and have several fillups available before you needed to go back to the gas station. When there were sufficient cars out there in the boonies then the gas stations followed, but there are still issues there (eg my parents live 14 miles from the nearest gas station).
Now, the same will eventually happen with EV's. People in the city will adopt them, they'll have charging infrastructure. That will slowly spread further out, eventually some of the rural folks will find it acceptable, and they'll switch over.
You have to let that occur naturally though, at its own pace. Setting enforced deadlines ignores the reality on the ground. I'd say that we'll probably see full conversion to electric vehicles naturally without forcing anyone . . . but probably by closer to 2070 not 2030.
