Hi,
I'm curious to find out if and how people will be charged to pay for our roads and maintenance of roads e when the majority of cars are electric. All is said about how cheap it will be to operate electric cars, but surely somehow the roads will need to be maintained.
I only ask this as I haven't been able to find much on it.
I'm interested to hear what your findings are on this area.

Kind Regards

Michael Tolhoek

No RUC charges are currently applicable for BEV's, however as their numbers increase this may become a cost that BEV drivers will need to pay.
