So what?
The statement was not 'market for cars is zero'. The statememt was " public transport and bikes will do most of heavy lifting".
its expressed in passenger-miles, not $$$. Looking at $$$ does not consider efficiency.
If you wanted to look at $$, what is the size of public transport budgets, markets for tickets and bikes?
- threeseed 4y agoIt is irrelevant who uses public transport, bikes or not. Because the European car market (which is larger than the US) needs EV options. And those options will need to factor in the conditions in those countries namely that there is a comparatively higher number of people renting and in apartments. Car markers clearly understand the problem and the opportunities here.

But that's it - personally I'd consider a solar panel on the roof of a car a total waste of resources. Even if I've got a house, the car will be parked in a garage or under the roof, no (solar) charging there. Solar panels on the house roof are a whole different story.
