The government committed to an expansion of electric cars yesterday with more roadside chargers, grants to act as incentives for purchases and tax breaks for company car drivers.
Philip Hammond said that a £400 million fund would be created to boost the number of chargers on the road network. The fund will go to electric charger companies to upgrade infrastructure after claims that too many chargers are slow or frequently broken.
The chancellor said that a further £100 million would be spent maintaining a car-buying subsidy until 2020. It contributes up to £4,500 towards the cost of buying an electric vehicle to encourage motorists to drive green vehicles.
