Those who have been to a dense Asian major city knows how awful walking on the streets are due to heat, noise, gas generated by cars and motorbikes.
Now go to Shenzhen China where by my estimation 80%+ of cars and 100% of motorbikes on the road are fully electric. The difference is night and day. Streets are way cooler, less noisy, and have little to no air pollution. It's honestly incredible and there is no way people in Shenzhen want to go back to a world where gas cars roam around the streets.
It's hard to describe the feeling of walking on the streets where the vast majority of vehicles are electric. It feels very futuristic. You just never want to go back.

The video doesn't capture the feeling of the air and temperature but it at least captures how quiet vehicles are despite being surrounded by them.
