will the number of traditional fuel stations still be around by the late 2020’s
Petrol stations as we know them will be around in the late 2020’s and for a considerable time after 2035. Its worth remembering that while ICE cars will no longer to be purchased new in 2030, Hybrids will continue to be sold untill 2035 and I wouldn’t be surprised if this date isn’t extended. Even after 2035 fossil fueled cars such as ICE and hybrid will still be in great numbers on the road if not still greater than the number of EV’s at that time. The unkown is what will petrol/diesel prices be after 2035. Will the government hike prices to try and force a switch to EV. Its also worth remembering oild is big money. I think it will be more early to mid 2040s before we start to see a big shift in dwindling petrol stations as we know them.
