> no one is giving up their cars
When you live in the downtown of a city, and parking at your apartment is $300/month, that's a strong incentive to give up your car

I would never use my car for any of those examples (living in a small EU city). The car is just there for leisure activities, to access skiing in winter and mountain biking/hiking/camping spots in the summer. Yeah it's more expensive than not owning a car but for some hobbies it's hard to give it up.
