History Repeats Itself
While a lot of environmentalists don't like cars, I doubt it's very realistic to expect all of the to disappear any time soon. Vast quantities of cars can be taken out of circulation because most commuting can be done with mass transit, and walking and bikes offer a healthy and green way to move around for lots of trips. But for some things (especially in rural areas), nothing beats the individual car. If only we could make it a lot cleaner... Which is what going back to the electric roots of the car would allow us to do (even moreso once we've cleaned up the electric grid).
