Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to examine the current state of electric vehicles (EVs) in the UK, with a focus on the challenges and opportunities for businesses as they transition from internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEVs) in line with the government's Net Zero roadmap. The plan to phase out ICEVs by 2035, with a ban on new sales by 2030, is driven not only by regulatory mandates but also by increasing pressure from partners and customers for more sustainable practices, particularly through the adoption of EVs.
