That's just going to be new vehicles, used gas cars are cheap in the US and won't be going away for quite a while after that. By that time there will be a decent amount of beater EVs which will probably be due for a $8k battery replacement. Also if there are fewer sources of exploitable labor in a decade or two, cars in general are going to get quite expensive as they are in Europe and Asia already.
The answer is always to develop public transit systems and transit oriented residential areas. What this means for the rural poor, I'm not sure exactly.
It’s gonna be dope to have cars be an expensive luxury on top of a national infrastructure both built for them but also actively hostile to other forms of transportation
There's definitely going to be a squeeze from many directions since federal and state governments aren't allowed to look 5-20 years into the future and do something to avoid imminent disaster
