Written Question
Electric Vehicles: Secondhand Goods
Thursday 9th May 2024

Asked by: Jack Brereton (Conservative - Stoke-on-Trent South)

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if he will make an assessment of the potential merits of providing funding for an awareness campaign to help tackle negative perceptions over the long-term (a) viability and (b) reliability of second-hand electric vehicles.

Answered by Anthony Browne - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)

Alongside government, industry plays an important role in communicating factual information on EVs and charging infrastructure to consumers. That is why in the Plan for Drivers, the Government committed to working with industry to address common misconceptions around electric vehicles (EVs) and communicate the many benefits of transitioning to EVs, both new and used.

In February, the Government published information on EVs, including used vehicles, and EV charging infrastructure. The Government is also taking proactive action to counter inaccurate information presented by the media on the subject of EVs, when this arises.
