Hundreds of fuel stations can run on generators. It's quick to fuel a vehicle and the next one can come in a refuel.
Where as if thousands of people are flocking to EV fast charging stations, you will have mass blockage for a 20-30min charge per car.
This is assuming a disaster scenario when you need to drive out of the area of problem.
Also fuel can be stored, I can place a large 200 gallon fuel tank in the bed of a truck and feed the fuel into the fuel system.
Much harder to carry more energy with you in an EV, other than a generator or panels. But panels don't work at night or that well with rainy conditions or bad weather.

What's wrong with people using their own generators?
What's wrong with using those generators to drive the wheels directly?
Because when it's not SHTF it's far more efficient and inexpensive. When SHTF the efficiency is still higher than most gas cars.
