Electric car that charges itself

For some (not that rare) areas, make that:

- bus: a few times a week (if at all), because of cost efficiency

- taxi: hours, + only if you book at least a day in advance, because they’re just not sitting there waiting for a call, they’re busy towards where people are/go, which is, like, the other way.

Throw in no/unstable/limited power grid, and you double down on one of the use cases.

The village 3 miles away has a bus service 5 times a day. My sister lives in a different village. She gets a bus service on Tuesday morning.

There would be more busses if there was more demand because less people had cars

There wouldn't, when there's only demand for 15 outbound journeys a day from a given hamlet, equally spread on the 4 roads in and out, your bus isn't going to get used.
