The only problem they will solve is air/noise pollution and maybe power efficiency. But for urban planning the space usage is the same, and traffic jams are the same. Also they move the same ammount of people.

They are a small upgrade in general (maybe more for cities with high air pollution).

    Not much noise reduction. After 50 kph, tires are louder than engines anyways.

    Sure there are the occasional busted/"tuned" exhaust comes out very loud, but the majority of the din is just wheels on the road.
