I hope this is the case....(that it won't happen)....
Because so-called millennials aren't currently car-crazy, doesn't mean we need to re-invent the wheel to cater to their current perceived dis-interest or laziness in automobiles as they are now....There has always been an answer to their life-style: buses and taxi-cabs....
