‘The final destination’The switch to electric vehicles (EVs), meanwhile, is already well under way. Britain and France intend to ban the sale of fully petrol or diesel cars from 2040, while smog-plagued India wants to sell only electric cars by 2030. “We’ll supersede the sale of petrol/diesel cars way before 2040,” said Jonny Berry, Renault’s regional electric vehicles fleet sales manager. Expert motoring journalist Matt Robinson said a “woeful lack” of suitable charging points remained a big problem for electric car users. “London is the best place in Britain to own an electric car but the infrastructure lags behind the uptake of early adopters,” he said.
