Higher sales of electric cars in the UK last year have helped reduce carbon emissions from transportation by 11%.

Mike Hawes, the head of SMMT, says, “Once again it is electrified vehicles that are driving the growth, despite the ongoing headwinds of chip shortages, rising inflation and the cost-of-living squeeze. 2022 is off to a reasonable start, however, and with around 50 new electrified models due for release this year, customers will have an ever greater choice, which can only be good for our shared environmental ambitions.

SMMT says sales of electric cars are still limited by the perceived lack of charge points. Government data showed there were 28,400 public charge points available across the UK on 1 January, but SMMT maintains the UK may need 4 or 5 times that amount before people lose their fear of being stuck out on the road somewhere with a depleted battery with no place nearby to plug in.Even though cars with plugs account for only a tiny percentage of all the cars driving around the British Isles,.
