I doubt that any single solution would work for your entire country. It works fairly well here in The Netherlands. The country is flat but it does have cold winters (two weeks of snow/ice and two-three months of close-to-or-under-freezing temperatures). Whenever I have worked within cycling distance (15km or somewhere with a viable train connection) I've cycled all year round. It would work in a city such as New York (which has a similar climate to here); the metro is already great for the bulk of the journey and bikes/e-bikes would work great for the last part. You'd just have to replace the cars.
