UK car manufacturers, heavily invested in electric vehicles, are urging the government to provide policy certainty amid reports of a potential delay in the ban on new petrol and diesel cars. The Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) emphasizes the need for clear, consistent messaging to boost customer confidence and maintain the country's leadership in zero-emission transport. Ford, Peugeot, Stellantis, Jaguar Land Rover, and Volkswagen UK have all called for policy stability to navigate the industry's monumental transformation. The industry warns that delaying the 2030 ban could jeopardize the energy transition and the UK's international investment credibility. Uncertainty also surrounds the government's zero-emission vehicle (ZEV) rules, adding further complexity to the automotive sector's path to 2030
