I can't actually tell just by looking at the photo, but Chargepoint DOES have one version of their station that supports BOTH plugs.

Also, what if you live in a very cold area?
If you have both an EV and a gas or diesel vehicle, you could use the charging station (with a 120V plug) to run your engine block heater as well!
