UL 2202 is the UL standard for EV charging system equipment. Section 14 is on EV Bonding, and it requires the output circuit of the charger to provide a means for bonding the EV during charging for grounded system of protection. There are different protection schemes, so the need for bonding is dependent on which is applicable.
In general, I would think that separate grounding of an EV from the charging system could create a ground loop and so would not be desirable.
