I'm so sick of the stereotypes. Why do you assume only 'wealthy people' drive EVs? Get out of the city & stop this crap. 🙁
It's right that electric vehicle owners pay their fair share of taxes - and our analysis of the new pay-per-mile levy introduced today reveals it will target the wealthiest households the most.

There's a gas glut on the horizon.
But what you need to know right now, is that a huge amount of upwards pressure on pricing has disappeared this winter compared to last.
