Subsidized Electric Two-Wheelers

The UK Government is Encouraging People to Go Electric

— May 6, 2015 — Autos
The UK's Office for Low Emission Vehicles is going to start subsidizing electric two-wheeler vehicles, making them more attractive options for purchase by citizens.

As this project gets going, it is hoped that the environmental footprint of vehicular traffic will be reduced. The presence of two-wheelers also means reduced congestion and greater availability of parking space. Owners of these electric two-wheelers will also be able to escape certain taxes such as Congestion Charges and Work Place Parking Levies, making for a more financially friendly alternative.

This project shows that governments have well and truly realized the importance of getting people to embrace electric travel. The offer of subsidized electric two-wheelers is sure to make some people take a more eco-friendly option as opposed to driving cars.
Trend Themes
1. Subsidized Electric Vehicles - This trend involves subsidizing the purchase of electric vehicles, making them more financially accessible to the public, and encouraging eco-friendly transportation solutions.
2. Electric Two-wheelers - This trend encourages the use of electric two-wheelers as a viable mode of transportation, eliminating the cost and environmental impact of driving traditional gasoline-powered vehicles.
3. Reduced Vehicular Emissions - This trend seeks to reduce the environmental footprint of vehicular traffic by encouraging alternative modes of transportation, such as electric two-wheelers, leading to a reduction of congestion and parking space availability.
Industry Implications
1. Electric Vehicle Manufacturing - Manufacturers of electric vehicles should take advantage of this trend, producing and marketing affordable two-wheelers with attractive features and positive environmental impact.
2. Smart Parking Technology - Companies specializing in smart parking technology can take advantage of this trend by offering solutions to address the limited parking space challenges faced by electric two-wheeler owners.
3. Energy and Power Industry - Players in the energy and power industry can leverage this trend by providing cost-effective and eco-friendly energy options, such as wind and solar power, that will further support the use of electric two-wheelers.
