What you describe is being done in remote corners of random places to serve as electric charge stations. Apply same thing to a place that is all about cars and people traveling.
And I was referencing real gas stations. 8 would be the smallest I have seen in the last 20 years, and I am primarily suggesting the bigger that are fed customers by freeway/highway, places that can refuel 12+ cars. I think I've seen plenty of flyin-j and the like that do 30+
but my point is having random charging stations places in the most inconvenient places with no bathrooms(or any amenities).
We had family visit us renting an electric car electric car as they thought they would save money. Well the 2 day trip turned to 5 day, and we did the math on their cost of electric to my vans cost of gas doing the same trip a month earlier and it was close. Not add in the extra hotel and the fact they still had to stop at gas stations.
They also did some extra driving as some charging stations they drove past because of how sketchy it was or it was closed or some such.
