Nissan warns that zero-emission car targets will have an 'irreversible impact' on the UK car industry, risking jobs and investment. Ford plans to cut 4,000 jobs across Europe, including 800 in the UK, due to flagging electric car sales. Despite warnings, the government remains committed to introducing green targets. Carmakers have raised concerns about the Zero Emissions Mandate, which requires them to increase the proportion of electric vehicles sold each year. Labour wants to ban fossil fuel burning cars by 2030, five years earlier than the government's target. Lack of demand and charging infrastructure are hindering the adoption of electric cars.
