EV sales goals may be reduced amid automaker pressure
The UK government is considering reducing its electric vehicle sales target from 80% to as low as 50% by 2030 amid pressure from car manufacturers. The review aims to provide industry certainty and potentially extend deadlines until 2034, but critics warn that lowering the target could hinder climate goals and reduce the number of electric cars on the road by 2035. The current policy specifies that the percentage of new EVs increases annually, with a ban on petrol and diesel car sales after 2030 remaining in place.
