Tesla batteries can be pretty damaging to the environment to produce. Rail is a lot cleaner in that regard if you can get an electrified rail (not sure if this works with high speed). Rail is also a much more efficient way, with regards to energy, to transport that many people as opposed to buying near 2 million Teslas.

- kelnos 9y agoRail doesn't run on batteries; the track is electrified, which overall gives you a lower environmental impact than manufacturing a ton of Tesla batteries.
- taoistextremist 9y agoYeah, I wasn't thinking, I guess, brain fart because I was thinking how the US refers to systems of non-electrified rails that can carry trains at above 115-mph as "higher-speed".
