Ebikes would help, but I honestly don't think anything of that sort other than electric cars and trucks will get much uptake. As you said, there's often no shoulder, and, due to low population density, there's little upkeep done on roads, especially in the winter and after storms. In short, unless your vehicle can handle snow, ice, and animals, it isn't a complete solution, not to mention the cargo capacity needed to not have to go shopping every day when the grocery store is miles away.
