    Because public transport requires a lot of investments in infrastructure (trains) and a lot of that into vehicles, drivers and maintenance, plus there would be a lot of non-profitable lines, specially when you have a fragmented country. Also a vision from politicians. They would understand “relatively cheaper” one time investments better, and EVs are the thing politicians like to speak about all the time. IOW we won’t see working public transport ever, while this … it might happen. Emphasis on might.
