I think part of it is building support and having conversations with people you know about ways you might improve your town, or why its important that we rethink how our towns and cities are layed out and connected by transit.
Imo the danger with an article like this is that it doesn't really address the fact that EVs are ultimately in support of a status quo of car dependency that isn't compatible with a sustainable future, so even when we do improve the tech it shouldn't distract from the long term goal of reducing car dependency.
