True, though it depends quite a lot on the car. If you're driving a second-hand civic or prius, the marginal cost per mile will be much lower than a Mini or a truck. I don't know what it's like for EVs. Where I live and with what I drive, once there is a single passenger, the car breaks even on the milage. But parking can shift things back in favor of public transit. It's close enough that traffic is always the deciding factor for which mode I take. If transit were free, I would probably just take it most of the time.
