You're significantly under estimating the time it takes to refuel. Between diverting to a station, fueling, and getting back on the road it's at least 10 min. If you're traveling such a long distance it's a good idea to take a break during a fuel stop anyway, so add at least another 10 min.
I travel a lot and tend to stop every 250mi (400km) or so, if not sooner. It times well with meals and bathroom breaks so my stops are usually at least 30 min.
Electric takes more time to recharge but on long trips the extra charge time doesn't have as a significant impact as you'd think, assuming chargers are plentiful and charge at the maximum rate your vehicle can handle.
