Even if the US and other car-centric countries started a serious effort on that today, it would take decades. During which people continue to use gasoline cars, and emitting more CO2 we will need to undo in the future. Electric cars make sense right now regardless of your perspective on trains (I like trains, and dislike cars, and I am sympathetic)

Electric cars make sense. Having Apple build electric cars, when they've never built anything like that before? That's far less clear.

I also agree with this.
