BRITAIN'S electric vehicle market will likely miss 2024 targets set by the zero-emission vehicle (ZEV) mandate, a trade body warned on Friday, and called on the new Labor government to introduce incentives for private buyers to speed up the switch to EVs.
The comments were made in an open letter to finance minister Rachel Reeves ahead of the October 30 autumn budget, and was signed by the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) CEO Mike Hawes and UK heads of several automakers.
