Petrol and diesel cars set to be banned from sale by 2030 under Government plans to cut carbon emissions

During the event, Johnson said that 2020 would be a “defining year of climate action” for the planet.

But motoring experts have criticised the contentious policy which would see hybrid motors also banned. "Manufacturers are fully invested in a zero emissions future, with some 60 plug-in models now on the market and 34 more coming in 2020."However, with current demand for this still expensive technology still just a fraction of sales, it’s clear that accelerating an already very challenging ambition will take more than industry investment."

The demands were made following research published by Greenpeace that found a delay beyond 2030 would knock the UK’s greenhouse gas reduction targets off course.

10 years is being extremely hopeful. Our vans at work have a 4 hour 70 mile range. Useless.

I wonder when the penny will drop that 'electricity' it's a fuel?

Why 2030? Why not immediately...

Madness! Where is the electrical charging system in private and public, and where is all the electricity coming from... long live my Rover !

Oh well, I don’t think I’ll be selling my diesel BMW anytime soon then. It will run forever whilst the ‘electric’ car industry dies on its arse.

So where is the electric coming from to power the cars? It's not. Cars will be a luxury, journeys will be essential only. Why do you think their building cycle paths?

Good luck to this. Can't see the trucks, police, fire or ambulance vehicles copping as the only looser will be the North Sea oil and the economy losing venue. Why then also ban sale of cigarettes for good as well as your playing fire with fire.

They cannot get a app to work, never mind getting all diesel and petrol cars off the road in 10 years. DUMB ARSES

great job done, 10 years later

They going to pay for everyone to get new electric ones then ?

Good luck with that one
