The Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders says further action is needed to encourage motorists to buy the more environmentally-friendly vehicles.

Sales of electric cars in the UK are expected to be lower than previously thought this year due to weaker demand. The Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders said it now estimates that pure electric vehicles will have an 18.5% share of the market in 2024. The trade body previously forecast that the figure would be nearly 20%.

'Achieving market transition at the pace demanded requires greater support for consumers and, with the all-important new number plate month of September beckoning, action on incentives and infrastructure is needed now.' The SMMT also downgraded its overall forecast for new car registrations this year, from around 1,984,000 to 1,968,000.
