I think we should consider more than just electric cars as a solution to this problem. We need to rethink the way we travel in many car dependent countries. Cars are the most in-efficient means of personal transportation. People should have multiple options for different needs. For shorter trips: Buses, Trains, light rail, Trams(StreetCars), bikes, walking, and finally electric cars. For long distance travel: slower overnight trains, intercity busses, high-speed rail, planes, and finally electric cars. Giving people multiple choices of transport for each trip helps reduce the need for massive roads, parking lots, and traffic jams. This also reduces the urban heat island effect because we can have more green spaces. I think cars, like all tools, are extremely useful, but we really need to think of more wholistic solutions than just electric cars so that it's actually a pleasant experience when someone does need to drive a car
