Yes, but most of those problems have other, less wasteful solutions. We don’t have to live sprawled out far away from our workplaces, and we don’t each and every one need to move our own 1500 kg vehicle to get somewhere in urban areas.
The notion of vehicles ro travel distances is not the problem. Engineering said vehicles as mechanically inefficient depreciating status symbols is the problem.
It certainly is. Even if the cars were cheap and electrical, they would still be noisy (road noise), dangerous (mostly to pedestrians and bicyclists) and use up ridiculous amount of real estate for streets and parking that should be used for better things.
