Just look at the situation in Ukraine.
There are cities where pretty much all gas stations are literal holes in the ground from being blown up. On the other hand most apartments do have electricity and the only vehicles on the road are military or EVs.
I'm shocked at how many people overlook this. I've had the same experience, as our "crisis" situations tend to be combined with widespread gas shortages. EVs are surprisingly convenient during most of those.
It wouldn't be fun to depend on a supercharger or other DCFC during that time, though... but maybe not significantly worse than gas even then. I've been in those gas lines.
