Root for better public transport and active cities instead of car dependency :)
The public transport bus I take to and from work is a Chinese made electric. It's a Yutong E15.
I remember that one getting tested in my hometown.
How common are these in Denmark? 😮 don't feel like I've seen one, but then again it's not like I study the make before I get in the bus
This specific model I don't know, but in Copenhagen all public transport buses will be electric by the end of 2026.
Living in the boonies, I'm never going to get a bus going by every ten minutes so a solid market for good EVs is still what I root for.
Of course, public transport has a limit and we can root for both as well, including protected bike lanes even in the boonies like we successfully see in the Netherlands
I'm somewhat hopeful, in the last ten years, new and renovated country roads have been getting dedicated bike lanes behind the guardrails. Miles away from the excellent, completely separate infrastructure the dutch have, but its a start.
i am lucky, my city has excellent public transport, that doesn't stop people from using cars though. be it because of pure habit, or because public transport is not solution for everything.
so i'd rather if our european car industry wasn't decimated by the chinese one.
I don't want to be like China though /s
