Indeed. Might even be an electric bike (although personally I enjoy riding my fast human-powered road bike on a daily basis).
While the myth that old (small) gasoline cars may emit less co2 car than a reasonably efficient EV does annoy me, the average electric bike (8W / km) is still 15 times as efficient as my electric Hyundai Ioniq (130W / km) and very usable (and most of the time just as fast) for any distances under 30km. Plus it takes up much less space and promotes cycling lanes and such, something that pays off dividends in the long run. With EV’s, it’ll just be more of the same (more car culture).
EV’s are an improvement for sure, but by far not radical enough to solve the issues we are facing.
