STIMULATING DEMAND
The ZEV Mandate is reshaping the industry – But where’s the demand?
The Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) Mandate is now in force. Yet, with rising costs, and an uncertain second-hand market, one fundamental question remains:
How do we stimulate EV demand?
While government targets continue to tighten, fleet operators are left with an urgent reality: 61% of BVRLA members report being forced to take EVs from OEMs: Those who fail to adapt risk operational disruption.
