Holiday Accommodation With Electric Vehicle Charging in Torquay

As we enter 2023, it is incredible to realise that within 7 years the sale of all petrol and diesel powered cars is due to end in the UK. As a result the numbers of electric vehicles on the road are increasing dramatically. Currently, there are just over 620,000 electric vehicles on UK roads plus another 440,000 hybrids. Growth in numbers of electric vehicles is quite staggering; between 2020 and 2021 there was a 92% increase in electric vehicles sales in the UK.  Although at much lower numbers, sales of electric vans have also rocketed recently and there was a 240% increase in these between 2020 and 2021.

On a monthly sales basis petrol vehicles still account for the largest percentage of new car registrations but as round 25% electric vehicle registrations are due to overtake new diesel registrations and hybrid registrations very soon.
