Is it a coincedence just as EV's are starting to sell in bigger numbers the government decides to cut the grants?
Motoring groups have condemned the government's decision to cut subsidies for buying greener cars.
From 9 November, grants for new plug-in hybrids will be scrapped, while discounts on all-electric cars will be cut from £4,500 to £3,500.
Cash incentives have been offered since 2011 to help promote cleaner cars and meet emissions targets.
The RAC and AA motoring groups said the change was a backward step, and the SMMT trade body called it "astounding".
The Department for Transport (DfT) said that the Plug-in Car Grant was introduced seven years ago to help the market become established.
