The UK government has closed the plug-in car grant scheme to new orders. This follows a  public evaluation report<\/a> highlighting that while the grant was vital in building the early market for electric vehicles, it has since been having less of an effect on demand. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other existing price incentives, such as company car tax, continue to have an important impact. The report also found the plug-in van market will benefit from grant incentives more to support businesses and their fleets in making the switch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How much is the plug in car grant?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To continue the UK government\u2019s drive towards net zero, \u00a3300 million in grant funding will now be refocused towards extending plug-in grants to boost sales of plug-in taxis<\/a>, vans and trucks<\/a>, motorcycles<\/a> and wheelchair accessible vehicles<\/a>, as announced in the autumn statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
