transportation costs, additives, markup at every link in the distribution chain including retail, and taxes from multiple jurisdictions, all need to be added to that.
I pay more than twice that at the pump. A 50mpg used car is the cheapest way for me to get around since I don’t have access to a car plug where I rent :(
Look up PlugShare. I travel around the country and charge for free at a lot of level 2 chargers. Level 2 chargers get around 15 miles per hour of charge, whereas a regular 120v plug gets you about 3miles per hour. It’s a trade for time, but doable if you have a few hours of doomscrolling or Netflixing. It’s not for everyone, but I’ve managed to cut my transit costs down significantly. Totally understandable if it doesn’t work for you, but I have some freedom in my schedule, work remote, and have internet, so I can sit at a charger for a few hours a few days a week.

So gas still costs nothing over there.
