      Most of that is because we truck everything and trains only get used for extreme bulk like coal

        We can thank the US oil and auto industries (the same ones dictating these green energy tariffs to their political puppets), for that too.

        The big pickup trucks and large SUVs dont help either.

        Don’t forget overloading them with hazardous materials, only to eventually inevitably crash and cause another social, economic, and climate disaster!

        Most east Asian countries are fairly low down on the list. They have excellent public transport, the world’s best high-speed rail networks, and a significant number of road vehicles are already electric.

        China is mostly building rail to solve its transportation issues, so this is completely unsurprising.

        Cope lol

        EVs are expected to reach 45% marketshare in 2024 in CN. Also I guess you haven’t seen their high speed rail network expand over the last decade (pressuring their car market in general). Then you have a lot of capita. So yes the numbers make sense.
