Probably not. What if you're having to wait on 10 other Ioniq drivers to refuel their cars for 18 minutes each?

  What if your gas station is full and you have to wait a long time for your turn... Oh wait, that happens every day at Costco.

  There will be more chargers and better integration with the car in the future. Tesla already does this: their systems automatically know where you need to charge and will reroute if all stalls are taken. The car will even heat the battery to optimal charging temperature to save charging time at the cost of range. But they have better vertical integration than other manufacturers. Other manufacturers are slowly following. The tech is there, it's just an API call. But for now it's all in the hands of lawyers and MBAs.

  Heh, dunno, seems like EV chargers are springing up everywhere. In my city they have them at various destinations like hotels, golf courses, Target, whole foods, . The city funded a few as well. Definitely more locations for charging than gas, but not sure how many cars/hour could be filled/charged for each. I do think that it would be worth providing an incentive for businesses with big parking lots to cover at least some of the area with solar. The ground temperatures decrease (less heat island effect), less AC for nearby buildings, less AC in cars (which won't be as hot to begin with), and of course more solar power for the grid.
