I sometimes I have to do journeys that exceed the range of my EV. I break the journey and charge but I don't need to go to sleep while that's happening. Personally I can't imagine an emergency where I need to travel 500 miles as fast as possible but I suppose I'd either fly, take a train, or rent an ICE car. I personally wouldn't invest in a dedicated emergency car because that would cost far more than the other three options.

I think a lot of Americans are a little paranoid sometimes! Obviously most of us have never needed to drive 500 miles on short notice, but you never know... One scenario I could imagine is an evacuation for wildfires or hurricanes, but often there is plenty of warning with those events. Having one gas car topped off during hurricane season is probably good safety if you live on the Gulf coast.
