What if running some of them is actually more efficient than tearing them all down in terms of environmental costs/industrial throughput given the fact that smelting and recycling metals has an environmental cost in itself? Can I keep my 5 seat wagon with 2 rear facing jump seats in the cargo area that have seatbelts but are technically illegal because the trunk doesn't have a way to open it from the inside? It doesn't even get good mileage but it's a people hauler.
Basically any cars that still run should be packed to the brim like the combis of many latin american nations
Yeah it's kinda ironic I think the combis and small transports that so many people rely on in car centric latinoamerica are a category that would benefit especially well from electrification & replacement with rail, both would improve many peoples' quality of life but fossil fuel companies benefit from nobody moving away from them outside of the first world.
