You don't need to limit motor power - because that's also your primary brake.Carlton green wrote: ↑8 Jan 2024, 8:54pm That’s a rather disappointing answer and indeed to my perspective socially irresponsible too. BEV’s are not a panacea and funding large BEV’s is actually a backwards step. If BEV’s are to be given tax breaks then they need to be very much more targeted and certainly not given to SUV’s - there should be weight, size, motor power and list price limits above which there’s no support from the state. It’s an absolute disgrace - indeed shame on those that support it - that well off people are given large tax breaks on SUV’s.
The rolling out of charging points is important but how more charging points are achieved can be contentious.
Tax breaks always benefit those who pay more tax more than they benefit those who pay little tax - but the aim should be to encourage development of new technology.
Charging point rollout is important, but less than people think,
AC charging is enough for everything that isn't a trunk road journey - and the vast majority of cars spend a decent amount of the week in off road parking...
