An idling gas engine may be annoyingly loud, but that’s the price you pay for having WAY less torque available at a standstill.

I don’t have enough charge for my trip. I’m also thirsty.
I go to a grocery store with a fast charger.
I buy a drink.
I have enough charge.
If it’s a long trip where I need more charge, I choose a car snack, and I’ll have enough.
If I’m on an actual long car trip and I want to charge all the way from the warning light to 100%, I will need to eat a meal anyway. I just find a McDonald’s/cafe,/restaurant/whatever with a fast charger, and it’ll be full before I’m done.
But finding a store/eating place with a fast charger is still waaaay less convenient than just finding a place where I can get diesel in seconds, and find a different place to get drinks/food/snacks.
