Implement the promised plug-in grants for electric motorcycles

It's time for the Department for Transport to honour the pledge it made on 27 March 2015 to include electric motorcycles in the plug-in grants scheme that has long operated for cars, vans and buses.

Why is this important?

The DfT's delay is blighting sales of electric bikes. Orders for hundreds of e-bikes have been put on hold while potential customers await the introduction of the incentive. The failure to implement the e-bike grants could cost jobs in the motorcycle industry and undermines the Government's repeated claims to be promoting green transport. Unlike the grants for cars and vans, a plug-in grant for electric motorcycles would also cut congestion.
