Even in a city where there is much rail transit, it goes only to a finite number of places. Most people are willing to walk only 200 yards from a station. Even feeder bus systems don't cover all the territory and often only run in the rush direction during rush hours. That is why we have come up with the station car concept to complement rail (ferry, express bus) transit. Station cars are smallish EVs. See http://www.stncar.com for details.
