In the interest of balance, the 2035 deadline used to be the 2030 deadline, and I wouldn’t bet much money that it doesn’t become something different again before we get there. The EU already made its first concession on the 2035 deadline a year ago.
Hi, been reading for a few months. Had to post about the EV push. I’m pretty sure the motivation is purely financial. The EV market is a bit of a horror show right now, particularly at the top and bottom, the mid-range cars, whilst still being heavily discounted, don’t seem in as bad a shape.
Couple of examples lifted from Autotrader.
The E208 with a list of £32k can be bought from Peugeot brand new for less than £20k.
Citroen e-C4 also £32k, also available under or around £20k.
Corsa-E £32k >>>>£22k
Even the Ioniq 5 (77kwh) with a list of £50k is discounted almost £10k.
Motability is still almost always going to give the best deal, but some of the EV cars might not be the bargain they first appear.
