Your periodic reminder that rationing gas powered vehicles is a feature, not a bug, of this agenda. Now, more than ever, we need to Save Our Cars.
The Telegraph (9/2/24) reports: "Car makers are rationing sales of petrol and hybrid vehicles in Britain to avoid hefty net zero fines, according to one of the country’s biggest dealership chains. Robert Forrester, chief executive of Vertu Motors, said manufacturers were delaying deliveries of cars until next year amid fears they will otherwise breach quotas set for them by the Government. This means someone ordering a car today at some dealerships will not receive it until February, he said. At the same time, Mr Forrester warned manufacturers and dealers were grappling with a glut of more expensive electric vehicles (EVs) that are 'not easily finding homes.' He said: 'In some franchises there’s a restriction on supply of petrol cars and hybrid cars, which is actually where the demand is. 'It’s almost as if we can’t supply the cars that people want, but we’ve got plenty of the cars that maybe they don’t want. They [manufacturers] are trying to avoid the fines. So they’re constraining the ability for us to supply petrol cars in order to try and keep to the government targets.'"
