The article discusses a potential policy change by the Labour Party in England, which could mandate that all new cars sold must be electric vehicles (EVs) by 2030, five years earlier than the current government's target of 2035. This accelerated timeline has raised concerns among automotive industry leaders, who argue that such a drastic shift could be "fatal" for the sector due to insufficient infrastructure, supply chain issues, and consumer readiness. Critics fear that this policy might lead to job losses, economic disruption, and could potentially hinder the transition to electric vehicles by making the targets unattainable, thus affecting the industry's growth and stability. The article highlights the tension between environmental goals and practical implementation challenges, with industry voices calling for a more gradual transition to ensure sustainability and economic viability.
