It's a bad goal to have EVs adopted as wide as ICE were. Cities should not be usable for cars.

- kube-system 6y agoMaybe they shouldn't -- but Rome was not built in a day, and tomorrow people have to get to work. A large portion of the world's real estate development since the advent of the car has been designed to work around those constructs. It took us a century to get into this mess and it'll probably take at least that to get out of it. We need to stop burning gasoline today, and EVs are the only way to do it. Erasing the sprawling suburbs that blanket car-centric places today isn't going to happen soon enough, and the environmental impact of the construction that would have to take place to do that is also very significant on its own.
