Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether his Department provides incentives for driving instructors to use electric vehicles.

The Department provides incentives through grant funding schemes to assist with the cost of purchasing new electric vehicles. These incentives are available for all motorists, including driving instructors. Grant funding schemes are also available to help pay for installing chargepoints in motorists’ homes, residential streets and workplaces. All electric vehicle motorists benefit from a favourable tax regime that rewards the cleanest vehicles.
