The AA UK EV Readiness Index has reached 60 out of 100 – its highest score yet. This marks its fourth consecutive improvement, up from 58.8 in Q2. Despite EVs representing 29.8% of the new car market in August, the AA say that the score demonstrates how significant barriers remain before EVs become affordable and accessible to all drivers.
AA President, Edmund King OBE, said, “The EV Readiness Index reaching 60 is another significant milestone. It shows that the conditions for going electric are steadily improving, but a score of 60 also tells us that we aren’t there yet.”
