Travelers are in a particularly poor position for charging. You're on a schedule, you don't have the accounts, you don't know where things are, you don't know how the car works, etc. But your latter group is a fine match for an EV. I'm not going to do 300 miles driving from the airport to the convention hotel and back. As long as you don't have to charge it before you bring it back, there's no problem.
I've done this before. Different country, car brand I've never seen, never even charged a car before. But my travel itinerary was less than the range, and it was fine. (I tried for fun to charge in a garage in Bruges; could not figure it out. Good thing I didn't need to.)
It's not appropriate for every rental, and there's some customer information and education requirements that are new because of that, but it's quite plausible to have a decent portion of a rental fleet be electric.
