I'd like to point out that for some people, alternative options like public transport may not be feasible due to various factors such as location or schedule. In such cases, electric vehicles (EVs) could serve as a more sustainable choice since they require less oil, which in turn reduces the environmental impact of oil extraction and transportation.

Moreover, societal trends are already shifting towards a future where the idea of "requirement" could be redefined. With advancements in technology, particularly autonomous driving, the concept of car sharing is becoming more viable. This could further minimize the necessity of owning even multiple cars per family. Most cars are idle for the majority of the day, which is a form of wastefulness that could be mitigated through these emerging trends.
