Should OEMs and dealers stick to what they do best and leave EV charging to the specialists?

As the UK Government’s target to reach net zero carbon emissions by 2030 continues to gather pace, so increasingly more car dealerships are making the move to selling electric vehicles (EVs).

To support this, there has been a big push to install EV charging infrastructure, with the government last year setting a minimum goal of around 300,000 public chargers in place by 2030.

As recently as February, the UK Government pledged £56 million for the installation of a further 2,400 charging points in a bid to speed up the transition, while charging companies have committed £6 billion towards their rollout, writes Alex Wright.
