Financial Times reports EU and UK plan to delay implementation of a proposed 10% tariff on electric vehicles. Brussels is seeking industry feedback on the postponement; the tariff had been due to apply to most vehicles from Jan 1. The UK supports the move. Automakers had warned the duty would weaken their competitiveness versus major rivals. ACEA previously estimated about 82% of electric passenger cars and light commercial vehicles would face the tariff by 2027.
