WHY UK BANS PETROL & DIESEL CARS IN 2040
The government of UK has decided to ban the sale of petrol and diesel cars from 2040 onwards. The Government was forced to come up with tougher measures to target diesel drivers after losing a case against environmental campaigners ClientEarth over breaches of EU emissions standards.

Just 4 per cent of new car sales are for electric vehicles currently and the National Grid has raised concerns about whether Britain will have enough electricity or will need to rely on imported electricity? Will there be enough charging points for the new generation of cars? Get answers @ https://bit.ly/2AKx1rT
