Open Letter: Let's not crash EV sales! - Drive Electric
Drive Electric has written this open letter to the Minister of Transport and Energy Simeon Brown to say that we know the new Government wishes to end the Clean Car Discount by 31 December 2023, but there aredifferent ways to incentivise EV uptake in New Zealand
The compelling case for EV incentives
New research shows the new Government’s policy to remove the Clean Car Discount (CCD) and weaken the Clean Car Standard could mean between 100,000 and 350,000 fewer electric cars on New Zealand roads by 2030, and increasing emissions by between 900 and 3,000 kilotonnes. It could also increase costs to the economy by between $900m and $3.5b, mainly from importing more fossil fuel.
