Electric and hybrid vehicles use electricity and a combination of electricity and fuel, respectively, to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and decrease emissions. Proponents argue that it significantly cuts pollution and advances the transition to renewable energy sources. Opponents argue that it increases vehicle costs, limits consumer choice, and may strain the electric grid.

The Government should improve and make public transport more accessible, financially and logistically.
@9NL4FTV7mos7MO
No, not until there is proof of safer and longer lasting power supply than lithium. The mining, manufacture and disposal of EVs is terrible for the environment.
@B26ZB332wks2W
Yes, providing any encouragement or incentives for consumers and manufacturers to change to such alternatives have failed.
@B23YCCN4wks4W
I think at least all cars should at least be hybrid by a certain date instead of fully electric as many people prefer manual cars
@B22ZP531mo1MO
We shouldn’t force people to do anything.
In fact use the suppressed technology of hydrogen powered cars for clean use and efficiency. Stop oil companies from making so much profit and reduce the human enslavement of mines in Africa to get the resources needed for electric cars.
@9ZS7WFP2mos2MO
Stop making petrol and diesel cars and allow people who own to continue use and change petrol stations to have more charging points. Old retro cars will never be able to be illegal if you own it you can use it but stop making NEW cars that require petrol or diesel
@9ZPPBP72mos2MO
Require everyone to switch to hybrid cars by 2030 and push for them to mainly run on electric with a petrol/diesel reserve.
@9ZK6MWP2mos2MO
Yes, but increase taxes onto petrol/diesel cars slowly, so gradually the population shifts to an electric based population.
