I see the UK is to provide a 10% discount on new EV’s. But only on cars up to £ 37k, so they will be subsidising predominately Chinese imports rather than European ‘prestige ‘ manufacturers. Still, it won’t damage our residuals or the majority of new EV’s as they are above £ 37,000. So now £ 40k cars will be artificially more expensive and also attract the £ 2k ‘luxury car tax’.

Subsidising EVs to boost sales numbers, after just whacking EV drivers with higher taxes, which is one of several reasons sales have dropped - it’s laughable.
