Elements of our ‘green future’ a safety concern
IN JUNE the Guernsey Press ran an article on their front page. It informed readers that sales of electric vehicles had more than tripled since 2020. The number of hybrid vehicles had also increased during that period, but not at quite the same rate. The article went on to tell us that in 2022 Guernsey was equal with Switzerland in seventh place on the list of European countries with the highest percentage of electrical vehicles. ‘Some dealerships have seen a great interest in electrical vehicles’. It is unfortunate then that the Press is unable to provide more up-to-date figures/percentages at a time when many of the world’s car manufacturers are allegedly struggling to move EVs off their forecourts. Hire car companies are selling off their electrical fleets at great financial losses as customers continue to prefer internal combustion engines due to their greater reliability.
