Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment his Department has made of the impact of the end of the plug-in car grant in June 2022 on the consumer uptake of electric vehicles.

Since June 2022, the UK’s zero emission vehicle market has continued to grow. According to industry statistics, so far in 2022 there has been a 38.4% increase in the sale of battery electric vehicles compared to the same time period in 2021 and over one million plug-in vehicles have now been registered in the UK.
