Carbon emissions from vans still rising as UK drivers cling to diesel

Costly new vehicles, limited choice and scarce charging points are holding back a switch to electric by businesses

Of course they are. As the article.rightly point out, electric vans are too expensive, and charging infrastructure just isn't there yet. Because the government wanted it all on the cheap and didn't have a plan.

There will also be a small diehard faction that think it's not 'manly'. The sort of people you get (in the states they have guns as well) with their overcompensating enormous pickups.

I've just thought of another benefit of electric vehicles, no more drive offs with a tank of fuel at filling stations.
