fueling station

Where cars drink

A fueling station is a place where vehicles fill up on fuel—gasoline, diesel, electricity, or hydrogen.

The term is more common in American English and often appears in contexts involving alternative fuels: The highway rest stop includes a fueling station for electric vehicles.

Gas station and petrol station are the everyday terms for traditional fuel.
