Or just invest in public transit instead of more cars?
In practice, we need ebikes, cycling infrastructure, better transit, and EVs. No one thing can be enough to get to where we need to be.
Sure but when it comes to investment using public money the worst options need not make the cut. You can count on people to blow copious amounts of their own money on the convenience and luxury of EVs. Public money should be focused on cycling infrastructure in the most full-blown way possible. And if there is still money to spend, then public transit. #fuckCars.

How about not charging 5 years salary of the average people for a car.
EV’s are capitalism’s solution to the climate crisis. In other words, they are worthless, except to car-manufacture executives. Invest in public transportation and bike accessibility.
