The expansion of the UK's charging infrastructure is now not growing at a fast enough rate to support the increasing number of EVs being sold, one of the largest sellers of them has warned.
And that lag in the charging network roll-out must be urgently addressed, according to Volkswagen Group UK managing director Alex Smith, who, in a wide-ranging exclusive interview, said that the mass-adoption of EVs in the UK risks being held back should the size, efficiency and reliability of the charging network not increase and that more must be done to incentivise private buyers to switch to EVs in the same way fleet buyers have been.
