Retail demand is not in line with Gov aspirations. If the proposition stacked up consumers would be queuing up Lack of infrastructure, capital cost, range vs published and the need for HMRC to recover lost fuel taxes raise legitimate questions. Personal transport becoming elitist

One final #carstats point. The @SMMT says market will end 2022 down 2.8% on last year. Given the market's currently down 11.5% year-to-date, it'll have to be an amazing performance Aug-Dec. That 72-plate will have to do some heavy lifting.
