    Cars in general are the problem and even if they all went electric they’d be bad. (But cities would be much quieter and they are hella fun to drive.)

    If you’re able to use a bicycle for some of your trips instead of a car, that’s a good change. (And if you’re not then you might not even be able to use an EV car if you could afford it. It takes way longer to charge a battery than to fill a gas tank.)

      No they wouldn’t. Most ICE cars make a “whoosh” sound, because most of their noise comes from air resistance - which EVs also have. And tires, of course.

      Cities wouldn’t stink as much, though.
