Our city just got federal funding to buy electric city busses. Those hold up to 50 people and don't look like a child's idea of a future car, and probably also don't spontaneously combust and kill all their passengers.

They're pretty nice and quiet though the suspension is rough on some models

Bus manufacturers know their shit and what the actual needs for such vehicles are and that is ultimately what they design them around. Not to look like some futuristic movie prop.
