I don’t understand what EVs have to do with the need for better public transports and better alternatives.

Maybe I’m missing something but that was never my understanding for the need for EVs to replace ICE, a need based in lowering reliance on fossil fuel and decreasing air pollution.

These are still required, whatever urban policy we end up with.

I see the urgent need for improved public transports to be paramount in these goals too, so both EV to replace the billions of ICE cars and better urban transportation alternatives are needed.



I think the poster is alluding to what appears (anecdotally) to be a mindset of "once EVs are ubiquitous we're good forever".

Whereas it can also be seen as kicking the can down the road.
