One car per family is doable, even in the US. We did it for a while and then got ourselves a Golf. Even after we moved to the suburbs, and the Golf was in the shop (deer) for a month (supply chain), it wasnt so bad. The secret? My other car is a 7 seater SUV with a 3.3L V6 that can tow 5000 lb. Its big enough that it can do anything I might need it to do. Getting the golf, ironically, lowered our fuel consumption because the golf can do 70% of what we'd use the SUV for. But, because of that remaining 30%, I'm keeping the SUV. So its not obvious that simply lowering average numbers of cars per household improves anything. Btw, replacing my Golf with an F150 hybrid would probably lower my fuel usage.
