Sure. Point is they're not a serious consideration, they're not bought, have no range, and are useless. Larger models like yours have almost all the same issues cars do. You just want to feel better about the choices you make, instead of just understanding the actual issues cars pose

They have much more range than a bike, so bikes are even more useless?

Huh? They have 60 mile ranges, that's less than a bike.

But no, for long distance biking you take it in conjunction with trains. Can't take a smart car on a train

Yeah, who doesn't run a marathon everyday to work??

[–] ILoveUnions@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's impressive how little you understand about how much energy biking takes

Anyone allowing themselves a 60 mile commute to work is crazy for multiple reasons. But again, trains

[–] Tja@programming.dev 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I commuted 14km (one way) by bike for years, I know very well how much energy it takes, but keep guessing.

If you think 14km is even close to comparable to a marathon, I'm going to continue questioning. that's a simple bike ride. Again, you have no idea how much energy it takes to bike.
