Electric cars took a record 30 per cent share of the UK new car market in June, as higher fuel prices, a wider choice of models and hefty manufacturer discounts helped give buyers another reason to make the switch.
A total of 213,166 new cars were registered during the month, up 11.4 per cent on the same time last year and the best June result since 2019, according to the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders.
