UK drives forward as biggest European electric vehicle market
Cikk tartalma röviden
The UK has become Europe's leading electric vehicle (EV) market for the first time, with significant sales increases in battery electric vehicles (BEVs) and hybrids in 2024. However, BEVs only made up 19.6% of the car market, falling short of the government's 22% target. The rise in sales is attributed to discounts from manufacturers due to stricter government mandates, including a zero emission vehicle (ZEV) mandate. Concerns arise about the sustainability of these discounts and the potential economic impact if consumer demand does not increase. The SMMT and car manufacturers are calling for more consumer incentives to boost EV sales.
