Here's the tl;dr of the actions we recommend in this piece in case folks don't read it: - weight-based fee for heavy vehicles - shrink EV batteries (which drops weight) - lighten car frames - reduce crashes and make streets safe - ramp up public transport and active transport and housing

We have a first gen SoulEV and it does what we need it to around the city (much shorter range than newer models) and one of the biggest challenges about thinking next cars is how many are enormous! We looked at a Niro a couple years ago and it seems tons bigger than it was then. So, yes. Absolutely.
