Well if all they want is their gas cars idk what to say. This isn’t a preference thing, its a get with anything and everything or we all die thing. There won’t be many options, until there are no options.
Electric vehicles are here to save the auto industry. We need to replace personal automobiles with strong public transportation for the climate.
I agree we need strong public transportation but there is still going to be a need for cars. I travel across state borders for my commute from a small town. Sure I could move, but then I’d have to likely pay way more for a house, taxes, groceries, etc, so unless the unlikely event they add a train that crosses state borders and connects small towns, some people will always have a need for a car unfortunately.
Also the public transport would likely take decades we don’t have to be everywhere meanwhile you can buy an electric car right now.
That being said I wish I had public transportation everywhere. I’d totally use it. I hate driving.
With high speed rail, your commute could be at the top speed of a sport bike, and without the slowdowns of traffic. The travel time would be more predictable, and you have your attention available for other things during the ride.
