The continued uncertainty surrounding the ZEV Mandate, neglect of the Used EV Market and the Wrong Tax Wrong Time e-VED plans are damaging confidence and proving costly for EV adopters.
Therefore, the BVRLA welcomed the news that the House of Commons Transport Select Committee is examining how effectively the transition to EVs is progressing and considering these and other factors that are influencing uptake.
This includes the effectiveness of existing financial incentives, such as the Electric Car Grant, the role of second-hand markets and the potential effect of e-VED. The inquiry will also consider the rollout of charging infrastructure across the country including the equity of availability in urban and rural areas, the availability of grid connections and factors influencing consumer confidence.
The inquiry is currently accepting evidence, with a deadline of Friday 30 January 2026. Members can submit their views on the link below or contact [email protected].
