There's another piece to it and I've heard this from other BEV drivers: we do virtually all of our refuels with inexpensive 8-hour charges at home and so taking twice as long for the occasional on-demand fillips at a station is well worthwhile. Yes, these are at comparable cost to gasoline but they are the rare exception in terms of total energy usage....if they're in position to do virtually all of their refuels with 8-hour charges while home sleeping, or at work, and don't need to do slow on-demand fillups at a station, then it's whole different matter. And that will be the mainstream market for BEVs IMO. Not people that need to charge at public stations.
