The main transport issue the US faces is sprawl. NO one vehicle, certainty not EVs, can solve that -- it is a system level issue. However i do believe that the last mile problem can be solved ... making the solution of the overall problem soluble by (public) transit (on steroids). The last mile issue could be solved with AV's (autonomous vehicles). Eg Ubers Jump could be outfitted to be an AV and transport Americans to a (usably frequent!) transit point. AVs could be made to work much easier (ie a shorter timeline) in the low density scenarios sprawl has produced, and which now make Public Transport infeasible.
