This falls under the “running the numbers for their use-case” section. If you can’t charge at home it probably will be more hassle (but might not be).

So does this, because for my use-case EV wins because I don’t need to spend any minutes refuelling.
EVs have a place. I'm a fan of them. However, until recharging an EV becomes as quick and convenient as filling up a fuel tank at a station, ICE will continue to be the preferred option.
That said, government incentives (China, northern EU states) and potential ICE bans (EU) may allow EVs to win out in some markets.
However, at least in the west, this depends on the EU going against the best interests of central European automakers and everyone else in the automotive supply chain. It's - very - hard to see this happening over the next decade or two.
Long term EV will likely win. We're still a ways away from this happening.
