Have you ever run an extension cord out to do a project outdoors? That's electricity, and it can charge your car battery. Pretty much anyone who isn't in an apartment can do it trivially. We do need solutions for people in apartments though, because that's a huge group and they're reliant on greedy landlords to decide to add access for them.

As for renting, assuming EV prices are reasonable, the savings from electric should pay for your rental, if it were really required. Likely your electric is fine but if you had to it's an option and it's not that bad.
