Road user charges a potential EV deterrent
The government has announced EV and plug-in hybrid car owners will now pay road user charges starting on the first of April.\nTransport minister Simeon Brown says it's a transition towards 'fairness and equity'.\nBut there are concerns among the EV industry that paying road user charges and the scrapping of the clean car discount will provide a road-block to EV ownership for many.\nKirsten Corson, chair of industry group Drive Electric, spoke to Charlotte Cook.
