I have absolutely no idea what this means. Discontinuing internal combustion is a requirement for the world's continued existence. Autonomous EV's are a great idea but I don't see that being feasible for a little while yet.

Killing private car ownership--that's really not possible in places like America, where we pretty much refined urban sprawl into an art form. I'd take mass transit (coronavirus notwithstanding) in a heartbeat if it was

A) Not filled with crackheads
B) Available in my area
C) Comparable in travel time to driving

But any mass transit in my area is crackhead-filled and slow compared to just getting in my car and driving.

As for global "reset," I feel like I'm missing something here.
