The United Kingdom has decided to bring its ban on petrol, diesel, and hybrid cars and vans forward.
From 2035, UK car buyers will only be able to buy electric vehicles (EVs), What Car? reports.
Let's put that in some context: By 2035 new car sales in the UK will be 100-percent electric. According to What Car?, just 1.6 percent of new cars sold in the UK are electric. The ban has the potential to turn the market on its head.
