      My thoughts exactly. The title is almost comically misleading. But I was impressed when I saw that they dedicated an entire section of their article to actually explain that shifting to other modes of transport is several times more effective than fleet electrification.

    Isn’t there often increased tire wear particles, though? EDIT: Haha, I guess they mention that although that’s somewhat true it’s not as bad as brake dust.

      Be careful though. I also barely used the brakes with my Renault Zoe. Until the complete braking system had to be replaced due to not being used. Make a hard brake once in a while (and while it’s safe for you and other drivers around you).
