No, because for the same amount of money we can increase bus routes and frequency which are proven to reduce emissions by a much larger amount. In the long run, sure.
@9JM8BRP1yr1Y
Although there are benefits to electric powered vehicles, discarding the batteries that power them causes way more pollution than normal gas-powered cars. Added, the overall efficiency of charging large heavy powered vehicles requires so much time which reduces efficiency when it comes to public transit unless more of these vehicles are made to have schedules in which they operate. If electric vehicles were to be added to all of public transit, they should be hybrid vehicles to both reduce fuel consumption, but also be efficient for people who require public transit daily.
