      The Tories themselves? They saw the petrolheads getting all worked up over the London ulez extension and decided to go for their votes. That’s all I can think of.

          Probably because by the time most folks sell their EV’s, they need new batteries, which aren’t cheap and add a lot to the cost of the vehicle. Depending on the EV, the cost of a replacement battery can vary between $5,000 and $20,000.
