I want public transport and walkable cities to win over electric cars. A lot of people take the need for cars for granted, and gush over the electric car future as optimum. This means that their transport utopia is something where you have these wide streets, click a button in your phone, and an Uber-Tesla picks you up and drops you off anywhere.
For me, this is the "faster-horse" of transportation.
I want more radical changes towards walkable cities with more space for people and less space for vehicles. Roads take up an insane amount of space, and self-driving electric cars don't make things much better.
The car should be more like a family appliance used in weekends for holiday trips.
