      It's better than a gas car, but you're right that there are issues. The biggest problem is that it's still a car: a personal vehicle way bigger than the (usually 1) occupant. It perpetuates most of the support systems cars demand: giant parking lots that hollow out cities, freeways that can never be wide enough to prevent congestion, and overall low density sprawl.
