I think the best way of Motability promoting EV’s is to reduce the AP’s
100% correct. EVs should be available to everyone. However, it is up to the consumer to decide whether an EV is right for them. Motability should ‘encourage’ the take-up of EVs, for environmental reasons if nothing else. ✅ If drivers are being ‘encouraged’ to go EV, then this incompetent Govt needs to get its act together (joke) and ‘encourage’ suppliers to deploy much more charging infrastructure as soon as possible. In addition, the Govt also needs to ‘encourage’ energy companies to produce more UK based electricity.? Unfortunately this will take many years, if not decades…??♂️
I’d go a step further. If Motability want to encourage the take up of EVs they should be looking at how to provide more specialist charging solutions for those who don’t have the simple off street parking. Those who have a dedicated space but a path or pavement between their home and car. To those who have a pavement before public parking on the road. There are solutions available, they aren’t standard ones but if Motability could get a fund together where people who have difficulty paying for such installs could be given the necessary funds and a project manager to help ensure the coordination of all the different bodies involved and information they all require. Obviously this all costs money but it’s not like Motability are short of a penny or two.
