The government is poised to push back the ban on the sale of new petrol and diesel cars by five years, LBC understands.
The ban, currently set to come into force in 2030, is set to be pushed back to 2035. The 2030 date has been government policy since 2020.
"Our approach will always be pragmatic and ensure costs are not passed onto hard-working families. We will not comment on speculation.” ‘Dealers are joining them in their belief that change will not happen fast enough to meet the current plan to ban the sale of all new solely petrol and diesel vehicles in the UK in 2030."Mr Sunak has repeatedly deployed the language of pragmatism and proportionality when discussing net zero, but campaigners and activists have accused him of a lack of interest in climate policies.
Chris Skidmore, a Conservative former energy minister who has become increasingly outspoken on net zero, said: "If this is true, the decision will cost the UK jobs, inward investment, and future economic growth that could have been ours by committing to the industries of the future.
