For motorcar vs car, it seems logical to update it to motorcar as it is the recommended way of tagging car access, as it is probably just an old wiki information on the amenity=charging_station. At the same time, should we use another tag than scouter=* for them ? Because it is not an existing tag on the access wiki page. Maybe using moped=* + motorcycle=* would be better and more in line with the access wiki page ?! Same for truck=* which doesn't exist, but i'm not sure if hgv=* would be the correct one ? How do we tag a fuel station dedicated to truck ? Because we could use the same tagging for electric charging that will be available for truck only. I don't know if any exist yet, but they are coming this year or next year at least with the new electric truck that start to appear.
To my understanding it is both a device and a place which is confusing. Maybe we should use the current tagging for the place (similar to amenity=fuel) and another for the device if needed. Because historically, there weren't many real "station" like we would have "fuel station". It was mostly simple charging socket on a place in a parking lot. This is not a station to me, but a device alone. At the moment, we use amenity=charging_station both for such socket/device in a parking lot and for larger station like Fastned station <https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fastned#/media/Datei:Fastned_electric_vehicle_charging_station,_De_W%C3%A2lden_(2019)_13.jpg> in the Netherlands, Ionity station or Tesla supercharger. It seems quite different and maybe we should refine it with one tag for a place looking like a station (with multiple charging devices) and a tag for just the device (especially for place like the airport where you can have many charging socket in a parking that are there to park your car and leave it charging when you take the plane) - i don't think these place are a "station".
