Sounds like a great reason to develop hot-swappable batteries. Stations could have different models of batteries with a charging station for them. the station would check the condition of the battery on it, then you take that one off, put the one from your car in, it checks that one, and then you get a ticket to go pay for your the power available on that battery, plus or surcharge or credit for the difference in battery condition.

It still might be slower than filling a gas tank, but a lot less than waiting for a battery to charge.
