Table 5 says that they assume an average of 5 miles to the charging station (so 10 miles round trip) per fueling trip, and then they are effectively billing the costs of that driving time and the recharge time against the EV. In contrast, the local gas station is assumed to be only 1 mile away, and (reasonably) refuel time is assumed to be small. The result in the analysis is that EVs have 5 to 8 hours wasted per month on getting to charging stations and waiting for the charge to finish. You can throw this study out the window if you are low mileage (so almost always can recharge at home), and/or have chargers at work or where you do errands (so you are not deadheading the trip to the charger and tapping your foot waiting for the charge to finish. Also, this study is focused on the cost of fuel and fueling, not vehicle costs. There are interesting studies on depreciation and maintenance that are heavily in the favor of EVs. As the ad says "your mileage may vary".
