“There is an urgent need for the Government to switch gears on its EV strategy into reverse, restore grants to their previous levels and introduce other incentives to jump-start the market.” “There seems to be a wave of misinformation being spread about EVs. We’re seeing many people being misled about the facts and real-world performance of batteries in electric vehicles. This is also having a knock-on impact for the used car EV market,” she said.
