Doesn't work. Stuff simply does not scale that fast. Maybe the big automobile companies can scale up EV production, but there's still the battery bottleneck (which prompted Tesla to build the Gigafactory, but I am not aware of any other project even remotely near that scale - and Tesla sure as hell won't sell its batteries to competitors, they got enough demand with their cars + the energy storage stuff).

Public transportation will only be buses that are able to scale. Even light/street rail takes years to get politically approved and then financed, and actual proper intercountry transportation takes decades to build - if it gets built at all given how expensive it is.
