Have you ever been in a city? Practically every street has stores that need deliveries. Does every street get a tram track?

while you could argue the specialized electric buses and delivery vans are "Cars" they cannot drive on normal roads and do not produce pollution, in terms of emissions or noise, like regular cars. It's more than possible to build a car free city, its been done before.
