EVs make only a small impact on GHG, anyway, but RTs could increase the impact:That's it. We can increase safety- especially in regards to drunk driving and walkers in urban areas but we won't impact greenhouse gas emissions without moving the fleet. Agree completely on multi-passenger issue, thats really the issue.
1. We're battery constrained for next decade. Each 80 kWh in a 100k+ mile/year RT has 5-10x the impact of a privately owned commuter BEV
2. Carpool commuting is much easier with RTs
3. <100 Wh/mile 1-2 person RTs could become a large fraction of the fleet
4. RTs could be a last mile solution for streamlined mass transit
