It’s an encouraging and inspiring the trends that looks to see 2020, continuously increasing sales
as compare in 2019. More than 72,000 vehicles were sold in last years. In this way, it become
easier to identify the actual demand of consumers in United Kingdom. Afterwards, it will be
increasing the supply of EV and plug-in hybrid car, new models being launched with a proper
regulation. Nowadays, it will be increasing trend which are only going to accelerate over next
few months.

On the other hand, EV have consist of modern technology with specific characteristics that differ
from its internal combustion engine. Therefore, Consumers have developed as positive
perception to towards Electric vehicle Batteries. Moreover, it reveals that there is so called
attitude action gap between perception of environmental green vehicles and purchasing
behaviour of people. in this way, it become easier to find the actual possibility to charge vehicle
at home, office and eliminating the regular visits at filling station.

Whenever, Researcher will start searching for multiple sources, might feel like every kind of
sources. At some point, it is mainly focused on the relevance that provide brief idea about the
concept of electric vehicle (EV) and increasing the demand or popularity in UK marketplace.

PART-2
Introduction to the topic-
Nowadays, it has been identified that increases the popularity of Electric vehicle (EV) in UK. As
a result, it will drop price or cost (Habib and et.al., 2020). Due to the availability of electric
vehicle for a while buying through potential consumers. The most common reason for increasing
the popularity of EV to minimise pollution rate in the environment (Alawadhi, Almazrouie and
Khalil, 2020). Therefore, many consumers are concerned about the environmental degradation.
That’s why, it can help to attract more consumers towards EV and purchase in UK marketplace.
Nowadays, it has been rapidly increasingly the growth of EV market with more than 1 lakh
electric cars on UK road at end of 2020 (Golbabaei, Yigitcanlar and Bunker, 2020). It has been
consider as positive 2020 when increasing the demand or popularity in UK marketplace. The
combined Electric market share has been shifted significantly upwards in the past years (Habib
and et.al., 2020). Biggest automobile companies are maintaining their strong performance in
May 2020 at 16% June and September 10% respectively, represent as significantly identifies the
growth or popularity of electric vehicle in UK market (Habib and et.al., 2020). It’s an
encouraging and inspiring the trends that looks to see 2020, continuously increasing sales as
compare in 2019. More than 72,000 vehicles were sold in last years (Tasel, 2020). In this way, it
become easier to identify the actual demand of consumers in United Kingdom.
Description of Literature and data-
In this section, it has been discussed about the academic context surrounding technical
change and innovation within Automobile industry. On the basis of LR, it outlines the current
importance of Electric vehicle (EV) with respect to the minimise temperature of atmosphere
(Krstić, 2018 Reinhardt, Christodoulou and Gassó-Domingo, 2020). Therefore, it will be
increasing the popularity of EV in UK marketplace. Nowadays, Automobile companies are
providing the EV in cheaper price or cost (Bingol, 2017). So as many consumers are preferred to
purchase EV in markets. Electric vehicle provide the low price or cost of travel along with
energy and help them to save harmful emission savings. A comprehensive literature review has a
11

prospects in term of EV in UK. Battery vehicles have been praised for saving the better energy
efficient in the internal combustion of engine. (Bingol, 2017). This will help for eliminating any
kind of barriers in use of electric cars.
In early market growth for EV continues, but at eliminate or remove barriers in order to
prevent environmental related widespread uptake. Barriers including cost of new technology,
relative convenience of modern technology and also available for charging time (Tasel, 2020)).
Literature reviews related to the significance of consumer awareness activities and encouraging
the adoption of EV. Based on the LR data, it can easily identify the suitable actions that will be
implemented by automobile companies at the time of electric vehicle promotions in market. Due
to the EV popularity, consumer who have exposure to give more preference them and consider as
best choice of individual people in marketplace.
Current state of Electric vehicle mobility in UK-
In recent times, Electric vehicles are gained more popularity in UK because of their
consumer’s demand (Habib and et.al., 2020). Individual people want to purchase electric car and
invest limited money on charging. When EV are discussed, People generally think of electric car
however, it is completely emerging UK countries. Sometimes, it is related to ease of travel from
one destination to another within low price (Golbabaei, Yigitcanlar and Bunker, 2020). In 2018,
it has been rapidly increasing the EV sales approximately 30 million units and total stock
become as 250 million (Golbabaei, Yigitcanlar and Bunker, 2020).
In developing UK country, it is very important to develop electric vehicle that would help
to resonate with electric power structure in different countries. Typically, the adoption of electric
vehicle which means that suggested as higher energy and emission saving for countries (Tasel,
2020). Use of electric vehicle (EV) is that maintain affordability and cost of ownership for
citizens. At certain level, it should consider as electric vehicle in regards that promote awareness
among consumer towards EV.
