Is an EV any more likely to run out of juice in a jam than an ICE car? Probably less so as they consume no energy other than accessories when stopped.
Only one I've ridden in is a Zoe and it had something looking very similar to and ordinary car's fuel gauge. They should know they're about to run out and stop at services for at least a quick charge. Just like the 'splash and dash' stop I'm occasionally forced to make with ICE.
I'd imagine AA etc will acquire, if they've not got them already, either battery packs or something like an aircraft ground power unit to quick charge stranded EVs.
