Three phases of Social engineering are in play now. current, near future and end game.

Current:

Trucks are being marketed to men as a replacement for cars.

Cross overs are being marketed to Women to replace the van, (the station wagon) and the SUV.

Near Future:

Everything else will be electric. then we will figure out what the industry knows, that the grid and infrastructure will not support charging stations in every house

End Game:

Then ownership of any automobile will be discouraged through regulation and cost.

There you go. Transportation reduced to ride sharing or a form of taxi. Mass transit will be pushed to break through within the culture.

My prediction: In an not too all distant future an internal combustion engine will be as vilified as an AR-15 is today.
