86: Measuring Micromobility and Talking Hypercars
This week Horace returns with Oliver for a great discussion about why what we measure in micromobility, and transport in general, matters so much. They also dig into the recent announcement of the T50 supercar from Gordon Murray, and explain why they, two micromobiltiy nerds, got so excited about a preposterously expensive car. Specifically they dig into: - The history of the rise and fall of infrastructures - Why what we measure about transport - be it track length, unit sales, passenger kilometres or trips - determine how we think about planning, infrastructure spending, and all of these second order effects. - The open question about Micromobility measurement, and what is up for consideration - The origins of the Micromobility podcast, and it’s connections to Gordon Murray - Why Oliver and Horace have both bought cars that Gordon Murray has recommended. - The intangibility of maniacal focus on user experience, and why that matters as much in micromobility as it does in cars.
