Yes. In the 70s, the slogan was that smaller cars would resolve congestion and reduce pollution, which was all complete hogwash. People bought more cars per household and every single problem except for traffic casualties got worse. 'Low emission' vehicles will only lead to more market penetration for closed private carriages and increase hypermobility.
