I think your comment is solely calling out Americans' singular focus on cars as transit but I wanted to make a tangentially related point that Americans care deeply about accessibility. ADA has cemented accessibility into the core of public spaces. Driving is much easier to navigate in many ways than public transit for those with many mobility disabilities. And many American companies (many mentioned in this thread) strive to provide quality experiences to users with disabilities.
I remember being shocked the first time I went to Europe that if you were in a wheel chair you couldn't access 90% of building. Even new ones. Also good luck navigating their subways and train stations.
