> Price though - it’s a tall order to expect everyone to buy EVs when the low cost options are so much higher than the low cost gasoline options. I can see how that would make politicians nervous 100%. Honestly, I hope that we use this opportunity to improve public transit in Europe a lot more than it already is done. Both: 1. Better bike lanes, everywhere, well maintained throughout seasons with good government subsidies on ebikes. 2. Public transit density and focus on lowering wait on connections. Basically, look at what Switzerland has done and try to copy it.

>I hope that we use this opportunity to improve public transit in Europe a lot more than it already is done. And I hope for all wars and world famine to end and all employers to let me WFH so I won't need a car and to raise my salary by at least inflation every year. The thing is we rarely get what we wish for, and in the EU countries I've been it's not really improving at the rate needed for people to give up on cars. The reality is the public transportation infra develops much slower than the demand shifts on the ground, hence why cars will always be with us.
