People like to point to Europe as a non-car utopia, but cars still have an overwhelming share of passenger-km in the EU-28. You need a Hong Kong, but that city model has problems of its own, plus bus, trains, bikes and walking does nothing for transport of goods.

This doesn't address my point. That looks at total inland transportation. I have stated specifically that we could do without them inside cities. Or at least certain portions of cities - such as dense cores.
As well, the more passenger cars you remove from the road, the easier you make it for more efficient commercial transportation.
