Forget about the housing. If the cost of personal-car commuting were to skyrocket, people would naturally gravitate to be near transit hubs.

Cyclists will be thankful that they're being killed by electric SUVs, not petrol SUVs.
I’m also for a usage based tax, after x Liters of fuel you pay more taxes (on a yearly basis)
That'd require a tachygraph or intrusive surveillance of road use. Taxing vehicle dimensions and weight is much simple.
A large percentage of microplastics come from car tyres.
Not all EVs are bloated SUVs.
Road damage goes up proportionally to the 4th power of vehicle weight: double the weight, 16 times the damage. Vehicle tax should include that as a component. That also indicates that we massively subsidise the use of huge lorries to transport goods.
Vehicle tax should be doubled for any such monstrosity. They also block visibility on the roads and are a hazard to cyclists and pedestrians.
Most of that blood was on Gillibrand's hands.
Yep, it was an ineffectual stunt.
One of Trump's favorite shitty moves is directing the Secret Service not to protect you.
What makes you think people want it at all?
The short drop will do just fine.
You can get all kinds of small EVs in the UK at least: Mini, Renault 5, Fiat Panda, among others, as well as the relatively shitty Vauxhall Corsa. Toyota made a bet on hydrogen engines instead of EVs, so that electric Yaris might take a while to materialize.
