Electric Vehicles: Manufacturing Industries
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment her Department has made of the potential impact of further changes to the Zero Emission Vehicle mandate on levels of investor confidence in the automotive and chargepoint sectors.
- Answer
-
The Government is committed to phasing out new cars relying solely on internal combustion engines by 2030 and to all new car and van sales being zero emission by 2035. These commitments provide the automotive and charging sectors with crucial investment certainty.
The Government has a long-standing commitment to publish a review of the Zero Emission Vehicle Mandate to ensure we are taking a pragmatic and balanced approach to the transition that drives investment. We intend to conclude the review, which will include a public consultation, in the next six months. We will welcome views from the automotive and chargepoint sectors during this process.
