The Netherlands, Finland, and Iceland have fully embraced electric public transport, with 100 percent of their new city buses in 2024 being battery-electric.

I wish we got more tram-buses instead, but I guess this is fine.

This reminds me of some people I knew who figured out North Korea had a fully electric city bus system (down to the specific bus models), with certain parts attached to overhead electric lines.

Kinda cringe they don't have trams (I think).
