Launch government initiative to trade high emission vehicles for electric models

Closed 42 signatures

What the petition asks

As of July 2018, the government set out for 50% of new car sales to be ultra low emission by 2030, but the reality is a new electric golf starts at £33,000, and the majority of households will never be able to afford this.
