Below expected take up of EVs has caused BMW to pause a £600m investment to electrify Plant Oxford.
The plant builds combustion engine versions of new MINIs, with BMW importing EVs from China. Such MINIs face a tariff as they enter the EU, although the UK has not introduced additional penalties.

A very clear response from London Fire Commissioner, Andy Rowe to a question at Fire Plenary last week from Emma Best AM about the impact of LTNs on fire brigade attendance times.
