The capital’s growing number of EV drivers will have to pay up to £3000 a year more to enter central London from January after the Mayor confirmed that they will be hit by the congestion charge for the first time.
Transport for London (TfL), which is chaired by Sir Sadiq Khan, today said it has decided to press ahead with strongly opposed plans to extend the congestion charge to green cars and vans, in effect creating a £75 million a year EV tax.
