Motorcycles: Grants
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment her Department has made of the potential impact of the forthcoming expiry of the Plug-in Motorcycle Grant on the availability of cleaner mobility.
Answered by Keir Mather
As announced in February 2025, the Plug-in Motorcycle Grant will close at either the end of financial year 2025/26 or when current funds are exhausted, whichever comes first.
Since 1990, annual greenhouse gas emissions from mopeds and motorcycles have declined from 0.7MTCO2e to 0.5 MTCO2e in 2024, accounting for 0.4% of domestic transport greenhouse gas emissions in the UK.
The Government continues to promote access to clean mobility, including by investing £7.5 billion to support industry and drivers to transition to zero emission vehicles.
