Gas stations across China are disappearing as EV adoption accelerates and fuel demand drops, creating a new kind of range anxiety—this time for ICE drivers. With fewer refueling points and shrinking profit margins, traditional petrol infrastructure is rapidly becoming unsustainable. The shift signals a dramatic turning point: the real refueling crisis may hit gasoline cars first.
I don’t understand, even if a bunch close, it just means that now there’s only one station within a mile of your house rather than four. Maybe this creates some irritation for ICE car drivers but I can’t imagine there’s any real anxiety.
