Community Mobility
- Contemporary vehicles, including EVs, focus on cocooning the driver in ever larger vehicles and metrics like top speed, horsepower, acceleration, gadgetry etc.
- MaaS could be a community orientated alternative, with a metric like how many pleasant encounters (people, coffee etc) one had on one's journey.
