TOUGH new targets are set to be introduced for electric car sales in the coming weeks as plans to phase out traditional cars roll on.<\/p>\n

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak is reported to be dead-set on the Government's 2030 ban on new sales of fossil-fuel-powered motors.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The ban is reported to have been part of a deal that secured a \u00a3600million investment from BMW in their Oxfordshire plant earlier this week, according to The Times.<\/p>\n

It is also believed that officials promised the company that annual quotas for EV sales would not be relaxed.<\/p>\n

Sources said that the Department for Transport advised Downing Street against significant changes to the rules.<\/p>\n

This will mean a target for 22% of all cars sold next year being electric, rising to 50% by 2028.<\/p>\n

For their part, BMW are not believed to have made this a condition of the investment, but simply urged ministers to provide clarity on what the rules will be going forward.<\/p>\n

David Bailey, professor of business economics at Birmingham University, said: "Certainty is key. Companies want to know what they\u2019ve got to aim at."<\/p>\n

Insiders claimed that the policy is in the "final furlongs" before it is announced, with Number 10 not looking to make any major alterations.<\/p>\n

Officials reportedly believe that this will give companies the confidence to invest in more charging points, with 3,870 installed over the last three months alone.<\/p>\n

This week, The Sun Online gave readers a glimpse of the current EV charging chaos, with over 12 million people fighting over a few thousand chargers in rural areas.<\/p>\n

And thousands have backed our Give Us A Brake campaign which demands a delay to the ban until proper charging infrastructure is in place.<\/p>\n

The Government has also faced pushback from its own backbenchers,with Net Zero Scrutiny Group chair saying he was "horrified" by the proposed regulations.<\/p>\n

He said: "The 2030 ban itself is out of step with our competitor countries like the US and EU, who have kicked this back to 2035.<\/p>\n

"Last time I checked we were a capitalist country where consumers make their own choices."<\/p>\n

The prominent MP also warned of a "political row" ahead as consumers are "not sold on" EVs.<\/p>\n

A DfT spokesperson said: "We\u2019re engaging closely and constructively with industry as it works towards phasing out the sale of new petrol and diesel cars."<\/p>\n

It comes after an EV expert shared their tips to avoid long queues at charging stations.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the boss of a major car maker admitted there is a significant "problem" with his own company's EVs.<\/p>\n
