According to Auto Express, EVs registered from 1st September should receive the green flash, as announced back in June
Will see if my dealership are sorted
Two days and counting 😊

We asked our dealer for a set, even though the car was registered in August. They didn't know anything about it! But agreed to supply some. Hope they remember.

I really wish the first design stayed. It would be very interesting to have an all-green number plate and I know that would have encouraged many 20-30-year-olds because "wow green plate cool" factor.

It also encourages a lot of EV-haters (for some reason they feel threatened), to damage your car.

I also forgot that fact but I thought that was more primarily an American based thing? I've only seen Teslas and it's in the US with key ups and the like. If anyone has any experience of their EV getting damaged in the UK out of spite damage be curious to hear.

Of the 20-30 yr olds that you know, what % have told you that they love the idea of a green plate, not withstanding that very few could afford a zero emissions vehicle?
