The price hike is, for EV owners, background noise.
To put energy in my Plus 8 sufficient for 250 miles costs north of £80.00
To put energy in my Tesla sufficient for 250 miles costs north of £8.00
So even if electricity doubles it goes from £8.00 to £16.00......the least of my worries!
Maybe Pete but Tesla vs big V8 isnt the comparison the average Joe makes. 250 miles in my Merc estate costs £30 of which 64% or £19 is the fuel itself. So the equivalent of your £8 is my £11.
I think you might be mistaken if you think the government can afford to give up fuel duty and high vat when electric cars are compulsory
