They obviously aren't prepared to put up with the loss of fuel revenue and have decided to act. A bold move given EVs are still with early adopters and the only real incentive to buy one is the lower cost.
Now the lever to get EVs on the roads will be legislation to ban ICE, rather than lower running costs.
