Govt To Subsidise EVs Again
July 15, 2025
By Paul Homewood
Yet more taxpayer money to be thrown at the cars nobody wants to buy!
The cost of some new electric cars will soon be reduced by up to £3,750 under grants being introduced by the government to encourage drivers to move away from petrol and diesel vehicles.
The discounts will apply to eligible vehicles costing up to £37,000, with the most environmentally friendly vehicles seeing the biggest reductions, the Department for Transport (DfT) said.
Carmakers can apply for funding from Wednesday, with the RAC saying discounted cars should start appearing at dealerships "within weeks".
But some drivers have previously told the BBC that ultimately, the UK needs more charging points to spur people to buy electric vehicles (EVs).
The government has pledged to ban the sale of new fully petrol or diesel cars and vans from 2030.
